Splinter Cell Remake Leaked Screenshots Reveal New Details for Ubisoft
Ubisoft’s long-rumored Splinter Cell remake is back in the spotlight after new images surfaced online, offering a rare look at what the project could be revisiting and how it might present certain in-game details.
The leaked materials appear to be screenshots of specific scene elements—covering locations, items, and even small pieces of readable environment content such as flyers and letters. The visuals are said to come from the portfolio of an artist who previously worked at Ubisoft Toronto on an updated version of Splinter Cell.
What the images seem to show
All of the shown content is linked to a segment set in Georgia. In the original 2002 campaign, Sam Fisher travels there to investigate the disappearance of two CIA agents—meaning the new visuals likely correspond to that part of the story.
Based on the context surrounding the portfolio material, the images are believed to originate from 2024 work, suggesting the remake’s development was active within that timeframe.
Remake development reportedly hit major turbulence
While the screenshots provide a glimpse of progress, the broader situation around the remake has reportedly been difficult. Rumors point to significant internal issues, and in February, about 40 employees were reportedly let go from the project team.
To address the situation, David Grivel has been tasked with steering the remake. He previously led the group behind the 2002 original and was also described as a key driver during the remake’s early production stages. After leaving Ubisoft Toronto for roughly three years, he returned in December of last year.
Why players are watching closely
The Splinter Cell remake remains unannounced in an official capacity, so these images are likely fueling speculation about the remake’s direction and fidelity to the classic stealth tone. The renewed interest also fits with a wider market trend: recent success in the Assassin’s Creed franchise has highlighted demand for refreshed versions of older Ubisoft games.
