Ubisoft is being very cloak and dagger about the status of
Splinter Cell Conviction after its no-show at Ubidays. The publisher tells
CVG that the time frame for
Conviction is this fiscal year, which would be sometime before April '09; meanwhile, Ubisoft tells
Eurogamer that the team is currently "polishing" the title, but wouldn't give a time frame for any further
Conviction information.
Ubisoft maintains that
rumors of
Conviction's delay until late 2009, or possibly 2010, are purely speculative. The company wouldn't elaborate, but did say that Splinter Cell is one of its major IPs and it won't release it until its perfect ... and "it's not yet perfect."
