Splinter Cell's Sam Fisher is an operator in Rainbow Six: Siege Stealth update. News by Wesley Yin-Poole Deputy Editorial Director Updated on 12 Aug 2020 25 comments Sam Fisher's video game cameo tour continues, this time with an appearance in Rainbow Six: Siege. The trailer below shows the underused Splinter Cell star as a new operator in Ubisoft's popular competitive multiplayer shooter. Fisher is part of the Operation Shadow Legacy update, and goes by the name Specialist Zero. Expect a full reveal on 16th August. Watch on YouTube So! Yet another Splinter Cell crossover and another day without a brand new Splinter Cell game. Clearly, Ubisoft hasn't forgotten about its stealthy hero.

"Just three small green dots, formed neatly in a pyramid. Oh how I've longed for the lights to dim during a showcase and see those three dots fade into life on the screen, accompanied by a fizzing whir of improbable tech being powered up. Dear Splinter Cell, where the hell are you?" It's been seven years since Splinter Cell: Blacklist came out. Could Splinter Cell skip this generation entirely? Ubisoft has another of its Forward events planned for August. Perhaps old Sam will turn up - in his own game this time.
