Ubisoft reveals 'big announcement' about Splinter Cell

Recently, Ubisoft had announced on the Splinter Cell Facebook page that it is about to make some ‘big announcement’, and gave part of an image as a teaser. Now, according to Eurogamer, it has been revealed that Ubisoft is gearing up to release a comic next year named Splinter Cell: Echoes, that will explain the events that take place between Splinter Cell: Conviction and the upcoming latest game in the series, Splinter Cell: Blacklist.In an interview with IGN, comic writer Nathan Edmonson said that Ubisoft was working very closely with him "giving input, encouraging ideas, helping us to better understand the Splinter Cell world, but they have never harnessed our creativity". Nathan also talked about Sam Fisher as a character and the rich history of the game. "Sam is a complicated character with a broken and dark past. His attitude, his technique is all very anti-Bond, anti-superhero," Edmonson explained. "He's also something of a slave to his ideals and his country; he's always been in service - he's never really been free. What he has ever done, has been done out of duty".
