Fans eagerly await a new Splinter Cell game, especially with the remake of the original shrouded in mystery and no release date in sight. However, PC players have received an unexpected dose of nostalgia from Ubisoft. For a long time, acquiring and playing 2004’s Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow on PC through official channels was quite a challenge, requiring physical discs. Now, to everyone’s surprise, one of the highest-rated Splinter Cell titles has suddenly appeared on Steam.
The early collection of Splinter Cell games from the 2000s holds a special place in many gamers’ hearts. While the third installment, Chaos Theory, is often celebrated, its predecessor, Pandora Tomorrow, is equally captivating. Ranked as the second-best game in the series with a Metacritic score of 93 (just shy of Chaos Theory’s 94), Pandora Tomorrow introduced exciting new features like laser sights, seamless cover transitions, and the ability to whistle to draw enemy attention.
Unlike most other Splinter Cell titles, which have been individually available on Steam for a while, Pandora Tomorrow remained a curious omission. That has finally changed. With minimal announcement, Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow is now live on Steam and ready for purchase. It has also been integrated into the recently updated Splinter Cell Legacy Collection, which now brings all six main games into one comprehensive bundle.
This unexpected addition arrives just in time for the release of Splinter Cell Deathwatch, a new animated series debuting today, October 14. It seems Ubisoft aimed to complete the digital collection of all Splinter Cell games, ensuring everything is ready for fans of the Netflix series.

Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow is currently available on Steam with an introductory discount of 40%, priced at just $5.99 / £5.39. If you don’t already own any games from the series on Steam, consider the Legacy Collection, which now includes Pandora Tomorrow and is currently 75% off, costing $13.45 / £10.88. Despite some later entries not quite matching the early classics, this bundle offers an incredible value for enthusiasts of stealth games.
For those looking for more classic gaming experiences, there are many other great old PC games worth exploring. And while the brand-new Splinter Cell remake is still without a release window, there are plenty of exciting upcoming PC games on the horizon.
