Splinter Cell Blacklist Goes Back To Its Roots

Splinter Cell Blacklist

Many old school fans of Ubisoft’s Splinter Cell series were disappointed with Conviction‘s heavier focus on action. Ubisoft realized this and added a new difficulty mode to Blacklist called Perfectionist Mode. Intended for Splinter Cell purists this mode removes your mark/execute ability and takes away your ability to see through walls with Sam’s sonar goggles.

This mode increases enemy difficulty in both stealth and combat as well as does not allow players to restock ammo at supply caches. This mode is really unique because it brings the series back to the original three games in the franchise where the only thing that you have to rely on is your night vision goggles and the shadows. Be sure to check out the hands on preview of perfectionist mode from IGN.com along with every trailer released so far for Splinter Cell Blacklist and get ready for its release August 20^th.
