It's been almost a year since we've heard anything about the Splinter Cell remake, beyond Ubisoft hoping to build a “solid base” for the future of the series, off the back of it. We also now know that the game's story is set to be rewritten, as part of the update, ensuring it's something that better suits a “modern-day audience”.
That's according to a job listing spied by PSU (via GameSpot), which is looking for a writer to update the original game's narrative, albeit with the first Splinter Cell serving as its foundation. "Using the first Splinter Cell game as our foundation we are rewriting and updating the story for a modern-day audience," the listing states. "We want to keep the spirit and themes of the original game while exploring our characters and the world to make them more authentic and believable."
The successful candidate will work alongside Splinter Cell: Blacklist developer Ubisoft Toronto, and help in constructing a "cohesive and compelling" narrative for a “new audience” discovering Splinter Cell for the first time. And with the game now twenty years old, there's plenty of scope for updating the storyline, alongside the game itself, which will be rebuilt from the ground up using The Division's Snowdrop Engine.
The Splinter Cell remake is still in early development, and, as such, has yet to receive a release window.
