Season Review: Splinter Cell: Deathwatch Season One
The legendary black-ops agent Sam Fisher returns in the adult animated series Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Deathwatch.
This series is the first animated adaptation of Ubisoft’s stealth-action franchise, expanding the lore and introducing a new take on the iconic operative.
Deathwatch is canon to the events of the main Splinter Cell video game series, picking up years after the last main game, Blacklist.
It focuses on an older, retired Sam Fisher, who is pulled back into action when a young Splinter Cell agent seeks his help.
The series explores themes of modern espionage, hybrid warfare, and the nature of “analog” soldiers in a digital world, revolving around a global conspiracy tied to a green tech company named Xanadu.
