Ubisoft has confirmed earlier that Splinter Cell Conviction finally has a set date for the UK. April 16th. This joins the US date of the 13th, where the date 'set in stone' - as you can tell from the above picture! The game will also ship in the EU and Australia on the 15th.

A tweet from Ubi's official twitter as well as other gaming media sources confirmed it.

"Splinter Cell Conviction's release date is now set in stone"

"And to be crystal clear, Splinter Cell Conviction will be out on April 13 (US), April 15 (Europe + Australia), April 16 (UK)"

This comes after Ubisoft pushed back the release to a very broad "April" and sent Splinter Cell fans into mild panic.

 They also confirmed to VG247, that the game would not have any demo, at least not for now anyway.

But demo or not, a release date is now at least penned. Now, breath in....

More info when we get it.
