Splinter Cell Blacklist - Ghost, Panther, Assault Trailer

Ubisoft is back with new footage from Splinter Cell Blacklist. You’ll see some new gameplay here as Patrick Redding walks us through the section of gameplay three times? Why three? Because there are three different ways to play the upcoming title. Blacklist lets you choose to play one of three play styles, the Ghost, Panther, and Assault. All three styles are shown here, and they are each distinct with their own unique features. 

Ghost mode is non-lethal, Sam’s techniques and skill set will help him sneak past enemies without being detected. This means that the use of guns will be rare, and many of your enemies will remain alive, making it more difficult to manoeuvre around the map. Panther mode will require a lot of time in the dark as well, but Sam will specialize in fatally eliminating his foes. He’ll use the shadows to stalk his prey and pounce when he spots a good opportunity… like a panther. There isn’t too much to say about the Assault mode, it’s designed for players that like to run-and-gun. I particularly like how it displays your last seen position, and depending on the AI, the feature could be extremely fun. You will be granted points on your performance in relation to the play style you choose to use, so you’ll want to stick to one method of progressing through a stage.
