Is Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell - Blacklist still worth playing in 2026?
An Ubisoft stealth game, Splinter Cell Blacklist puts agent Sam Fisher back on mission against a terrorist threat, reconciling the series' stealthy spirit with a snappier pace that lets you choose between shadow, non lethal takedowns and assault. The fluidity of movement, the wealth of approaches and a solid cooperative strand make it an excellent stealth game. The Wii U version uses the GamePad for gadgets and the map. A title for fans of modern stealth and tactical freedom on the console.
