Splinter Cell now due March 31, 2010
Ubisoft has been doing very well lately, with the successes of Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas 2, Assassin’s Creed, and Rayman Raving Rabbids 2. However, they have also announced that the next installment of Splinter Cell is only coming out in March 31, 2010.
As mentioned, Ubisoft also said today that it has raised its guidance for its fiscal full-year sales. Previously pegged at €1 billion ($1.56 billion), the publisher now believes that sales will hit €1.02 billion ($1.59 billion), thanks to gaming-industry market conditions, its first-quarter performance, and the reception of its upcoming games that the publisher received during this year’s E3 Media & Business Summit.
One game that will not be contributing to that growth will be the oft-delayed Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Conviction. As part of its financial report, the publisher noted that Sam Fischer’s next excursion has once again stalled. Ubisoft now expects the game to arrive during its 2009-2010 fiscal year, which runs from April 1, 2009 to March 31, 2010.
