Sounds weird? It isn't. The Ubisoft veteran David Grivel was the first game director for Sam Fisher's return, but left Ubisoft three years ago and now he's back.
It's not necessarily a sign things are going well over at Ubisoft with the revival.
And they are doing this just a week before Summer Game Fest and Xbox Games Showcase.
Don't you worry, Sam Fisher is coming back.
A new header for the developer suggests as much.
With more Far Cry, Ghost Recon, and Assassin's Creed coming too.
A welcome surprise.
Expect some pretty impressive visuals whenever the game debuts.
David Grivel worked at the company for 11 years, with his latest role being heading up the upcoming remake.
The game will "deliver next-generation visuals and modernized stealth gameplay, while preserving what's at the heart of the Splinter Cell experience".
The series will go back to the basics, but also deliver top-tier graphics and modern improvements.
