With this threat, Sadono appears on the front lines, forcing U.S. troops to retreat in order to avoid direct confrontation. Third Echelon learns that Sadono has to make daily calls to ensure the bioweapons are not detonated prematurely. Lambert assigns Fisher to bug the calls so that they can be traced to Soth's mercenary cells guarding the ND133, with aid from Shetland's PMC outfit, Displace International. The traced calls allow Third Echelon to inform the NSA, who send agents out to find and neutralize all but one of the ND133s, allowing the U.S. army to launch renewed operations against Darah Dan Doa guerillas. Sadono is forced to withdraw from the front lines. Not wishing for a repeat of the "Nikoladze affair" in 2004, Lambert instructs Fisher to find and capture Sadono rather than kill him outright, and hand him over to the CIA. Fisher works with Karlthson in capturing Sadono at a television station in Jakarta. The conflict ends, and diplomatic ties between the U.S. and East Timor are strengthened.
Third Echelon continues hunting for the last smallpox-armed ND133, and discovers that Soth and his mercenaries possess it, with the intention of detonating it inside Los Angeles International Airport. Lambert reveals Soth's actions were not motivated by Indonesia, but rather by a perceived betrayal by the U.S. in an incident that lost him one of his legs. Fisher infiltrates the terminal building, kills Soth and his men, and secures the ND133. Disguised as a maintenance worker, Fisher places the device near two policemen, who evacuate the airport upon spotting it, and call in the Los Angeles Police Department's bomb squad to perform a controlled explosion of the device.
As with the original Splinter Cell, development of the Windows version focused on being a port of the Xbox version, duplicating its user interface and gameplay. However, the Windows version was designed to run at higher resolutions than the console versions, with the "checkpoint" save system from the Xbox version being replaced with the ability to save the game at any time and the controls reworked to allow simultaneous use of a keyboard and mouse, with movement speed being controlled by the mouse wheel. None of the bonus content from the other versions was made present for Windows.
A PlayStation 3 version of the game was released in September 2011 as part of the Splinter Cell Trilogy in Sony's Classics HD series. It is a port of the PC version, which had better graphical detail than previous console versions. It does not include multiplayer modes, but has trophy support.
The GBA version was released on March 26, 2004, in Europe and March 27, 2004, in North America.
