Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Blacklist The 5th Freedom Edition

Twenty-four centimeters of Sam Fisher, ready to infiltrate your shelf. The Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Blacklist 5th Freedom Edition on Playstation 3 is the full collector's experience, packing a Sam Fisher figurine, steelbook case, 96-page Splinter Cell Echoes graphic novel, and a mountain of digital content into one collector's box. This was exclusive to Game in the UK and Gamestop in Ireland, giving it a defined retail footprint that keeps supply in check.

The physical goods tell the story here. That figurine is the same 24cm sculpt that anchors the entire 5th Freedom line, and it's still one of the better Sam Fisher statues produced for any collector's edition. The graphic novel at 96 pages is substantial enough to actually read, not just flip through, and the steelbook gives the disc itself a proper home. On the digital side, you're looking at five suits, five gear pieces, five weapons, and two bonus co-op maps. It's comprehensive.

Splinter Cell Blacklist came out during the tail end of the PS3's lifecycle, when publishers were still investing in physical collector's editions before the industry shifted toward season passes and digital storefronts. The 5th Freedom Edition is a product of that era's generosity. Every component feels considered, from the figurine's pose to the graphic novel's page count. For franchise collectors, this is essential. For PS3 collectors, it's one of the better packages from the console's final years.
