Ubisoft to this point hasn't been very talkative about Splinter Cell Conviction's multiplayer. It seems they've been saving that information for a big reveal.

The current issue of PC Zone (via CVG) teases that the next will feature a "hands-on, co-op reveal" and information on "a brand new mode." Unfortunately, that's all they say. It should be enough to get SC fans a bit fired up, though.

The PC Zone issue with the Conviction info will hit stores on December 23rd. The game itself is due at the end of February.
