It now appears a new entry in the franchise has been greenlit by Ubisoft, according to development sources who spoke with VideoGamesChronicle.
While it isn't clear which Ubisoft studio is developing the game, two sources suggested development on the new Splinter Cell was being led by a studio outside of Montreal.
The game is still early on in production, however, there is a small chance Ubisoft will announce the game in 2022. Ubisoft declined to comment when asked about a Splinter Cell game.

Splinter Cell is going to have to carry the stealth genre now that Konami shit the bed with MGS.
I remember enjoying this series back in the day. Even more than Prince of Persia.
It’s not like we can guess which studio either since Ubisoft has freaking 40+ internal studios lol, but I’m guessing Massive and Montreal are out since they’re working on big projects, but who knows. Willing to bet it’ll be micro transactions filled though, even if it’ll be full priced.
Just happy to see Splinter Cell isn't dead!
