Alright, listen up, stealth fans! Ubisoft just dropped a classic from the vault: Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow is now sneakily available on Steam. For those of us who remember the good old days, it's a chance to relive some tactical espionage. But hold on, it's not all smooth sneaking.

Let's be clear, this isn't a shiny, new remaster. Ubisoft themselves said it's a straight-up re-release, with only some essential fixes. So, what does this mean for you? Well, you might need to channel your inner tech wizard to get everything running just right. Think of it as a retro challenge, like getting an old car back on the road.

Now, here's the kicker: you're gonna have to deal with Ubisoft Connect. Yes, that extra launcher we all love to hate. It's a bit of a pain, especially for a game that predates the whole launcher craze. It's like needing a special key to open a door that should already be unlocked. However, if you can stomach that little annoyance, you're in for a treat.

If you're willing to tinker around with mods to add controller support and smooth out the edges, it can be a lot of fun. I remember spending hours perfecting my stealth runs back in the day. Also, it’s currently on sale! You can snag it for a few bucks.

Speaking of playing on the go, Steam Deck users can rejoice… sort of. Reports say it runs, but it might need some tweaking. I guess that’s the price we pay for portable Pandora Tomorrow action.

While we're waiting for the Splinter Cell Remake, this re-release might be to build hype. Also, a new animated Splinter Cell series on Netflix has just dropped.
