Well that's not quite what we were expecting.
Yesterday Ubisoft North America dropped a short video which featured a conversation between "paladin" and "matchwood" with the latter being voiced by Michael Ironside who famously voiced Mr. Sam Fisher. Before long it's made clear that matchwood is in fact Sam Fisher from the Splinter Cell series when his trademark night vision goggles fill the screen.
This crossover comes as part of season of content for Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands which will be made available on April 10th. More details on the crossover itself will be revealed on April 9th just one day before it's all set to go live.
However it's fair to say that some fans are not overly happy with this announcement, trust me you don't have to scroll far through Facebook or Twitter to find enough disappointed fans that Fisher isn't coming back in his own Splinter Cell game.
That being said, is this something to be disappointed about?
Recently rumours flew out of the mill stating that Sam Fisher could be returning in a new Splinter Cell game this year. Ubisoft have yet to confirm or even deny that rumour but given that E3 is just under two months away it's looking more like that rumour could be true and that this crossover is just a way of reintroducing fans to the character since he's gone into hiding.
But as always take that with a grain of salt.
