It’s a season of HD remakes and Ubisoft seemingly doesn’t want to fall behind, even as it gears up to launch Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell Trilogy for the PS3 today. According to the PlayStation blog, this pack shall also be released on PSN through today’s PS Store update. All three games would be rendered in HD and will be equipped with 3D support.
This bundle includes Splinter Cell, Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow and Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory, all of which have been extremely successful in the past. The first title was outed in 2002 for the PS2, Xbox, GameCube, PC and Mac. The other two games were launched in 2004 and 2005 respectively and both titles persisted with the unique stealth action genre for which the series is known for.
Alex Monney, PR Coordinator, Ubisoft, posted on the blog, “Reliving classic gaming memories is one of my favorite things to do. I vividly remember playing Splinter Cell Chaos Theory on PlayStation 2. Did I have a ton of fun? Yes. How long did I have Sam Fisher fumble around in those curtains? Way too long. Would I want to do that all over again with HD and 3D? Absolutely.”
Alongside the HD and 3D support, these games would of course consist of PS3 trophies. All three titles will be made available on a single Blu-ray disc, while the total space that they will consume once downloaded through PSN, is expected to be around 11GB.
Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell Trilogy is all set to be released today for the PS3. It will be made available at a price of 39.99 USD (approx Rs. 1,973).
