Rumors about an open world splinter cell were broken

We already reported at the end of last week that a new Splinter Cell should come. The rumor came from the pen of industry insider Tom Henderson. The big difference: Henderson spoke in his Tweet of an open world and a “version of Assassin’s Creed that relies more on stealth”. The game world should also resemble Halo Infinite’s open hub approach. This message should be obsolete with the announcement of a linear remake.
