Today, Ubisoft gave Splinter Cell fans a bit of a tease with the release of the new Deep State DLC for Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint. The title adds eight new story missions and stealth-based gameplay, so it certainly seems like the perfect place for Sam Fisher to show up. The only problem is that Splinter Cell fans have been waiting for a new game in the series since 2013’s Splinter Cell: Blacklist. While many fans are happy to see the character appear once again, it’s definitely not the new game Splinter Cell fans have been long waiting for. As such, it’s a bit of a double-edged sword!

Fans really want a new Splinter Cell.
Sam Fisher should return in a new Splinter Cell Game.— 50nn7 Ch1B4 vs Fr4nc0 B36813 (@BgbPxq) March 19, 2020
People are pumped to have Michael Ironside back, at least!
Sam Fisher vs. <checks notes> Terminators?
Cripes, Ubisoft, please stop this nonsense. While it's always good to hear Michael Ironside's voice, I can *hear* the advancing age in his voice.
GREENLIGHT A PROPER NEW SPLINTER CELL GAME AND TAKE IT SERIOUSLY. PUT CLINT HOCKING ON IT https://t.co/FeKABVsq2L— Ryan McCaffrey (@DMC_Ryan) March 19, 2020
It’s a pretty legitimate question.
When will Splinter Cell’s Sam Fisher come back to Splinter Cell... https://t.co/5gkFgoI5om— ally💥 (@grumpyrobins) March 25, 2020
It doesn’t help that this is Sam’s second appearance in a Ghost Recon game.
Sam Fisher has been used in more Ghost Recon properties over the last decade than Splinter Cell.

Of course, some fans just want to see the game get fixed.
Sam Fisher is 62yo, how is throwing a senior citizen at a broke game gonna fix my missing binoculars— TOR (@ArluinCadeus) March 23, 2020
People just aren’t happy with Breakpoint, even with Sam Fisher in it.
I like Sam Fisher's development in the first mission, but Breakpoint as a product is still miserably broken. I think they took the right steps but yet again released another broken product. Shame.— Joseph Southworth [gladiisTV] (@gladiisYT) March 25, 2020
And they definitely don’t like that they have to pay to see him, either.
You put the sam Fisher episodes behind a paywall after your game flopped? Are you smoking crack? How dare you— Time2Target (@time2target) March 25, 2020
Overall, I kind of agree with Edd.
