After being announced for the Xbox360 and PC back in 2006, Sam Fisher has been trying to escape the Ubisoft factories ever since. After a backlog of hold ups it seems the new release date for the game is April 1st 2010 as opposed to the February 23rd release date set late last year. But can we really trust what Ubisoft say this time round?

Unfortunately, that will not be the case, as Ubisoft announced today that Splinter Cell Conviction has been delayed out of its current fiscal year and into April 2010. The publisher also said that its all-new World War II strategy game R.U.S.E. has been pushed into its upcoming fiscal year, which runs from April 1, 2010, to March 31, 2011. Ubisoft gave no explanation for the delays.
