Ubisoft is also offering the original 2002 game for free on PC through November 30th.

Endorsed by Tom Clancy’s thriller techno military novelist, splinter cell is a series of stealth games developed by various Ubisoft studios. You play as Sam Fisher, a bodysuit-clad NSA agent originally voiced by actor Michael Ironside who was tasked with surreptitiously assassinating targets in an effort to prevent the raging wars from breaking out. All in all, seven splinter cell Games have been produced, the last of which was in 2013 Black list. However, after nearly a decade of silence about whether or not Sam Fisher would fit in again to stifle some bad guys, Ubisoft finally quenched fans’ thirst, announcing in December 2021 that its Toronto team would helm a remake (not a remake) of the OG game.
