Splinter Cell: Conviction, the last game in the series, didn’t emphasize stealth as much as previous titles. Longtime players won’t have to worry about a dearth of stealth elements with Splinter Cell: Blacklist, however.

Speaking with VideoGamer, creative director Maxime Béland assured fans that Blacklist primary focus is indeed stealth, stating:

“The [game’s] economy system is balanced to push you towards [playing stealth]. If you play Assault, or if you play clumsy, you’re going to make some money and if you play Panther, you’re going to be making more and be rewarded more.” Béland said.

“If you play Ghost, it’s harder: not being detected is really hard. You need to be conscious of the environment, you need to listen well… but you’re going to be making a shit load more money if you’re playing [that way]. I’m hoping regardless what your play style you’ll come in and [start] gravitating towards Ghost.”
