Ubisoft has revealed that the fifth instalment of the submarine simulation series, Silent Hunter, is currently in development and will be available in early 2010.

Silent Hunter 5 ventures into uncharted territory and takes players behind the periscope of a German U-boat to take on the Allied Forces in famous battles across the vast Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea. For the first time in the history of the series, players can live the life of a submarine captain from a first-person view and lead a crew in a critical campaign.
