According to Ubisoft's CEO, Yves Guillemot, the publisher is working on the brand bit by bit to eventually allow for a Splinter Cell return.
The Xbox brand has done a lot of good over the years, but their various blunders are pretty wild to look back on in their magnitude.
Ironically number 9 can save them at this point (releasing games on multiple platforms)

In a bold move to revamp its operations and reputation, Embracer Group has announced plans to divide into three distinct entities.
Splits into 3, so 3 times as many middle managers, never a good thing isn’t that what ruined them in the first place ?
Well people complain when they consolidate and there's redundancies. This is the opposite so apparently you can't win.
Honestly huge companies being less huge is a good thing. I think ABK should have done the same thing, then they could have had more than one possible buyer to purchase them. It was really Microsoft or no one how they stood.
Breaking News: "In a Blockbuster move, Asmodee to buy Coffee Stain & Friends and Middle-earth Enterprises & Friends. After merger, new entity to be called Embracer Group. A 1,000 job cuts to be expected after merger."

I actually don’t want it current Ubisoft is all about open world games with microtransactions I don’t want to see Splinter Cell going that route.
An always online game.
I don't understand why when it comes to the Splinter Cell IP Ubisoft has to stealthily bring the series back(other than using analogies) when they can reinvent a huge property like Assassins Creed, Watchdogs or fund new IP's Ike For Honor, Skull and Bones or Gods & Monsters!
Why not just get back to basics but with contemporary twists. Surly modern tech could see a Splinter Cell game that so many fans want. Also it doesn't need to be open world. Why not take a page from the recent Hitman games?!?! Have Sam travel all over the globe and each area is a vast open area that can see the objectives completed in a number of ways.
Have cloak and dagger play a big part and they could also update the ahead of its time spy's vs mercs. I don't see the hesitation because I think if done right it could be a really great series once again!
Online only co-op, cosmetic microtransactions, pay to win, empty openworld, am I close ?
