Ubisoft is pursuing films based on Assassin's Creed, Splinter Cell and Ghost Recon.

According to Variety, Ubisoft Motion Pictures has been working with the games' producers to write scripts accurate to the original games.

"Our strategy is not to diversify but to bolster the appeal of our franchises - that's why we want to make sure our films will reflect the brands accurately and consolidate our fan base while expanding beyond the games' primary target audience," said Ubisoft VP of marketing Jean de Rivieres.

Currently, films are being looked at for Assassin's Creed, Splinter Cell and Ghost Recon. The films will be produced by the recently formed Ubisoft Motion Pictures.

Last year, Ubisoft released Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, and it will release Assassin's Creed: Revelation later this year.

Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars and Splinter Cell 3D both released earlier this year for the Nintendo 3DS. Ghost Recon: Future Soldier has been delayed to 2012.
