About the GameThe United States has a military presence in two-thirds of countries around the world, and some of them have had enough. A group of terrorists calling themselves The Engineers initiate a terror ultimatum called the Blacklist – a deadly countdown of escalating attacks on U.S. interests.Key FeaturesOperate without Restrictions
Sam is back in his tactical suit and goggles, and he’s more lethal and agile than ever. Granted the freedom to do whatever it takes to stop the Blacklist, Sam flies from exotic locales to U.S. cities as he races against the clock to find out who’s behind this devastating threat.
Own Your Play Style
Splinter Cell Blacklist builds on the stealth roots of the franchise, while exploring new directions to embrace the realms of action and adventure. Players can define their personal play styles and be rewarded for those choices.
- Ghost players want to remain undetected.
- Assault players rely on instincts and frontal blow to deal with a situation.
- Panther players look for lethality in the most efficient and silent way.
Tools of the Trade
Take down The Engineers by using new gadgets such
as the upgraded Snake Cam and Micro-trirotor Drone. Splinter Cell Blacklist is also bringing back fan-favorites like the Sticky Shocker and the brutal, curved Karambit knife. Fans of stealth will be happy to make the most of Sam’s sneaking abilities to abduct and carry enemies, while Killing In Motion allows the player to strike with surgical precision by marking and executing multiple enemies in one fluid motion.
Build a New Echelon
Sam is building a whole new Echelon unit; his team, his way. Anna “Grim” Grimsdottir is his technical operations manager, CIA operative Isaac Briggs brings additional firepower, and resident hacker Charlie Cole rounds out the crew. 4th Echelon is a fully mobile ops unit with unlimited resources and cutting-edge technology aboard the re-purposed stealth airliner, the Paladin.
Enjoy a Fully Integrated Experience
Sam and his team are aware of terrorist attacks in real time thanks to the Strategic Mission Interface (SMI). The SMI allows 4th Echelon to receive data about mission objectives while on the move. With the SMI, players can take advantage of the universal game economy system that allows players to fully customize and upgrade Sam, his suit, goggles, weapons, the Paladin and much more.
Spies vs. Mercs Returns
Spies vs. Mercs is back with an new take on asymmetrical gameplay. Players will be able to face off in teams of 4 all the while creating their very own Spy or Merc according to their playstyles via thorough customization elements. The original Classic Spies vs. Mercs experience also makes its long awaited comeback for the fans.
COOP
With the SMI, the lines are blurred between the single campaign and COOP as the narrative is deepened with Sam and Briggs. Earn in-game currency and unlock additional weapons or gadgets via specialized missions assigned by Grim, Briggs, Charlie and Kobin.

FIX for the crashing:- Type -offline -offline_mode in the launch options on steam, did that and now it only crashes very rarely, before it was every 20 minutes or so. It is a very fun stealth game, pretty linear with some openness. Coop isn't there anymore but the charlie missions which are wave based and the campaign are a good time. The new voice actor I have warmed too a bit but he is more generic. You have lots of gadgets and can play like a ghost or aggressive. Buy the steam version so you can fix it, it shouldn't have to be done but there you go.

this port has issues with crashing, but luckily you can put "-offline -offline_mode -nointro" in launch options and resolve it. i had crashes every 20-30min, but none after i used the above launch options.
as far as the game goes, it's fantastic. still hold up in 2026. you can choose your own approach in each mission, aside from some scripted events. the story is a generic stop the bad guy, save the world plot, but it done well and makes for good locations/set pieces.
definitely check out this game and the whole splinter cell series if you like action-stealth games.

This game was ahead of its time! Feels nostalgic playing it and I have no complaints AFTER I fixed the crashing every 30 minutes.
Here’s how you’d do it:
1. In Steam → Right-click Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Blacklist.
2. Select Properties.
3. In Launch Options, type:
-offline -offline_mode
Hope this helps!

Out of the box, this game simply doesn't run well on contemporary hardware and doesn't allow you to use the original DLC.
!!!UNLESS!!! it is modded to use all your modern CPU cores, unlock the missing DLC, and also customize the difficulty level to your liking:
Complete gamechanger. The game is performant now, I can access all the DLC suits and weapons, and it has been a joy getting back into this lost PS3-era chapter of Splinter Cell.
I hear peer-to-peer multiplayer and coop can be done with something called 5th Echelon too, although I haven't tried it out yet.

CAN BE MADE TO WORK
Really excellent Splinter Game, and the best graphic-wise I suppose that is still available. It does have two issues that can both be fixed with some googling:
- it requires a login to ubisoft connect every start up - download fixed executable from gamecopyworld
- it quits after 30 mins - run in offline mode with the launch parameters -offline -offline_mode
Now on to my review....
I am a massive Splinter Cell fan - it introduced me to stealth gameplay which I really took to. I loved being able to take my time, plan my attacks and routes, and not be constantly having to run around shooting and defending.
Splinter Cell Blacklist is the 6th game in the series, and to me was a return to form after a few games that didn’t quite hit the mark. It has everything you want in a SC game - loads of gadgets, a variety of locations, lots of stealthy shenanigans, a brooding protagonist etc etc. It looks and plays great.
A nice touch is the ability to be scored based on your preferred playstyle. If like me you prefer stealth, you can try and max out the stealth scores by not killing anyone or getting detected in a level. But if you prefer to assassinate people you can do that, or even go loud with guns. Each method earns points which in turn let you upgrade your gear and your plane (which serves as your base of operations). The former giving access to better stealth suits and gadgets, the latter providing field upgrades like improved radar etc.
It’s a solid upgrade tree that feels motivational and not out of reach, and I really enjoyed upgrading my Sam Fisher to a true badass.
Because of this combination of tactical variety and open-plan level design, each level is incredibly replayable, which has always been a fun aspect of these games.
All in all, it’s a great addition to the series and I really hope they bring it back as Ubisoft seem to have lost interest, which is a real shame.
