    Currently, there is no news on whether any Japanese Studio is involved in the production or not. Netflix, Ubisoft, and Derek are yet to reveal the main contents of the deal. For now, we are only aware that they commissioned the Splinter Cell anime series for sixteen episodes in total.

    Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell is an award-winning secrecy video game franchise. It made its debut in 2002. The story of the game follows Sam Fisher — an elite operator in a fictional black-ops division of the NSA known as the Third Echelon. The series has sold more than 30 million copies worldwide. The latest sequel, Blacklist, released in 2013. The creators also announced a feature film that was in development for a long time.

He wrote for movies like John Wick and is currently busy with ‘The Falcon and The Winter Soldier’ series at Disney+ and ‘Nobody’ at UNiversal. Both of his projects will release by the end of this year or in early 2021.

    This is not the first time Ubisoft is teaming up with a streamer for recreating their video games into films or series. Mythic Quest series and Assasin’s Creed film brilliant examples of their successful pairing in the past. However, it is the first time they are pairing up with the streaming giant. So, everyone is definitely looking forward to this project.

  • Akiba’s Trip Season 2: Happening? Everything For The Fans To Know

    The fans have been looking forward to Akiba’s Trip Season 2 for the past three years. However, they aren’t getting any updates because the creators are pretty tight-lipped about it. The debut season of the anime series successfully managed to impress its viewers but could not secure a good position in the rating’s chart. It is the remake of the video game franchise of the same name, which is also very popular.

    The story of Akiba’s Trip revolves around otaku teenager Tamotsu Denkigai and his sister Niwaka. Suddenly, without notification, vampiric, cosplaying monsters known as “Bugged Ones” appears in Tokyo, Japan, and run prevalent throughout the city. These monsters can control anyone by biting them. As Tamotsu is about to be beaten by one of these creatures, a mysterious girl wielding a baseball bat named Matome Mayonaka swings in and protects him.

    Both of them together fight with more of these monsters, and their contacts with them keep increasing. However, while defending Matome, Tamotsu gets seriously injured by one of them. Unknowing to him, Matome is actually a high-level Bugged One who is trying to shield the city. Therefore, she revives him too as a high level Bugged One and pressured him into joining her in battle.

    The main concern of the fans is the renewal of the series. The creators have not renewed the show for its second season. And that means the chances of seeing Akiba’s Trip Season 2 are not very likely for the fans. It seems like the low ratings of the debut season of the anime are not allowing the creators to advance further with the new season. The creators are still tight-lipped and yet to announce the fate of Akiba’s Trip Season 2. However, the chances for renewal are minimal.
