In response to whether there will be a demo for Conviction, Creative Director, Maxime Beland, simply stated, "Yes, there will be one. I can't tell you what map or when it's going to be released yet, my lips are sealed."

I'm just hoping it comes out before the release as i'm feeling splinter cell-y

Lets just hope its a co-op demo.

Ubisoft has finally announced today that a demo of Splinter Cell: Conviction will be hitting XBOX Live before the games official release date of 13th April 2010. Read further for more details and release date.

It look's like the official release date of the demo itself will be around 18th March 2010 via XBOX Live. It will be a single player demo of the campaign and will take place in the opening segment of the “Michigan Avenue Reservoir” level and will be some what of a tutorial on the games core mechanic's and functions.
