During the Facebook Connect event, Ubisoft announced Splinter Cell VR and Assassin’s Creed VR. These two games will be coming to the Oculus VR devices. However, there isn’t any ETA on when they will come out as of yet.
Both games are being developed from the ground up by Ubisoft’s Red Storm in collaboration with Ubisoft Reflections, Ubisoft Dusseldorf, and Ubisoft Mumbai.
Elizabeth Loverso of Red Storm Entertainment said:
“We are always exploring new ways to leverage technology to create memorable gaming experiences. Oculus’ next-generation hardware will allow us to bring the worlds of Assassin’s Creed and Splinter Cell to life in a new way. These games will take full advantage of Oculus technology to deliver immersive and emotional experiences that players cannot experience anywhere else.”
Mike Verdu of Facebook Reality Labs added:
“We are happy to be working with Ubisoft to bring two of their AAA licenses to virtual reality. They are an exceptional partner constantly creating innovative content, and Assassin’s Creed and Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell on the Oculus platform will be no different. Players will have impressive experiences. and immersive within two worlds that they are passionate about and that until now were only available in 2D. We are looking forward to bringing these games made for virtual reality to fans of each series, as well as new audiences.”
So yeah, a new Splinter Cell game is in development. Let’s just hope that Ubisoft will also develop a more traditional Splinter Cell game after this VR experiment.

While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2. John has also written a higher degree thesis on the “The Evolution of PC graphics cards.”

only f4ggots play vr games.
You must own them all then.
Shame, more exclusive cancer.
And on the least common denominator system console system, lots of visuals and hence immersion will be compromised.
No Vive/Index – no play.
Hope it’ll be hacked to run there.
So we finally get a new Splinter Cell game and they make for VR WTF!
Let’s rewind it, cause it’s happened before…
So we finally get a new Half-Life game and they make it for VR WTF! And you need the Index VR
And now “These games will take full advantage of Oculus technology to deliver immersive and emotional experiences that players cannot experience anywhere else.”
Your point is what exactly?
We all know Valve made Alyx to shift their VR hardware so it’s a stupid comparison.
that loser is still salty that they can’t afford VR. only reason why they are bringing it up. as a side note, I’m also upset about this game being VR too.
Hate for nothing…
Own a Rift but that’s not the point.
RIP Sam Fisher! :'(
This F**KIN Facebook and its BS Oculus Quest headset making this worse than they already are!
man ubisoft really has a hate b*ner for valve eh? first they are in bed with epic and now occulus? lmfao
Valve is not a saint. All of them are evil.
lol and what exactly did valve do that was evil? still upset that half life alyx was VR only?
again, my point still stands. what exactly did valve do that was evil other than putting alyx as VR only? but hey feel free to keep downvoting and not replying like a manchild
