Ubisoft has dropped four games, including Splinter Cell VR and Ghost Recon Frontline, as well as two unannounced ventures.

President Yves Guillemot reported the finish of advancement on these ventures during the organization's most recent profit call. As a component of Ubisoft's system to lessen activity expenses and backing positive development in the years ahead, Guillemot determines "much more spotlight on our greatest improvement potential open doors, as confirmed by our choice to stop improvement on the Splinter Cell VR game, Ghost Recon Frontline, and two other unannounced titles."

Splinter Cell VR was first reported in September 2020 as a major get for Oculus. It was in progress at Ubisoft's Red Storm studio, the maker of Star Trek: Bridge Crew and Werewolves Within. It was declared close by an Assassin's Creed VR game which is still apparently being developed.

Fortunately the full-fat Splinter Cell change uncovered back in December is a different, progressing project headed up by Ubisoft Toronto. Overseeing chief Istvan Tajnay desires to see the revamp "widen the skylines of the series" and arrive at new players.

Last we heard, the Splinter Cell redo was a greater amount of an early, greenlit project than a genuine working game. All signs demonstrate it's as yet quite a long while out, however since it's a declared venture, we can in any event check it off the rundown of Ubisoft's dropped games.

Phantom Recon Frontline, in the interim, was revealed before the end of last year as an allowed to-play, strategic military interpretation of fight royale. Work on the PvP shooter was driven by Ubisoft's Bucharest studio, and it was set to send off on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and PC. A shut beta was reported soon after the game's uncover, however it was at last deferred endlessly. Look at our meeting with brand chief Stefan Marinescu for additional subtleties on the shooter that might've been.

Ubisoft has deferred Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora past March 2023 close by another unannounced premium title.
