According to Amazon France listings spotted by The Sixth Axis, both Splinter Cell and Prince of Persia franchises could be getting Blu-ray treatment in the coming months. Unfortunately, other than a 39.95 Euro ($54) price tag and a November 2 release date, neither listing provides any real detail on what the trilogies might contain.
If Ubisoft so chooses, however, the trilogies could reflect the God of War Collection released last year, with upgraded, HD graphics — perhaps add online multiplayer to the older Splinter Cell titles? We just don’t know. Rumors have also been swirling for quite some time that Team Ico is perhaps hard at work on something similar for its first two titles, though no European Amazon listings have popped up to bolster that possibility … yet. As far as we can tell, either there’s a lot of wishful rumoring going on, or Sony could be starting a trend with HD-ifications of God of War and Sly Cooper that will extend to other franchises.
Rumor: Ubisoft releasing Splinter Cell, Prince of Persia trilogies on PS3 originally appeared on Joystiq on Sun, 08 Aug 2010 15:30:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.
