madbuk Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2017-01-30-dont-expect-another-deus-ex-game-anytime-soon Quote There won't be another big Deus Ex game in the foreseeable future. Square Enix's shift in focus to its recently-announced multi-game Marvel project, combined with underwhelming sales of last year's Mankind Divided, mean the Deus Ex franchise has been placed on hiatus, Eurogamer understands. This, despite Mankind Divided leaving the series with a number of hanging story threads. These plot points were intended to be resolved in a third game, which would also complete the trilogy of Deus Ex titles begun by predecessor Human Revolution. Much of this remaining story was once intended for Mankind Divided, Eurogamer has heard, until the game grew too large in scope and had to be curtailed. (Even with this, Mankind Divided's development took five years). It's unclear if this untold story will now be left unresolved - or tied up in another medium, such as a graphic novel. Quote The bulk of Deux Ex studio Eidos Montreal is currently at work on the next Tomb Raider, the existence of which leaked online last November when someone left a "Shadows of the Tomb Raider" PowerPoint presentation open on the Montreal subway. There's no word yet on when this might launch. Personally, I've never played Deus Ex (thought about getting Human Revolution multiple times on sale, but my experience with first person stealth from Metro put me off), but it's always sad to see a franchise do poorly. Especially if the story is going to be left unfinished... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowReplicant Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Mankind Divided was one of the best games of last year (it would've been my GOTY if it wasn't for Persona 5) and Human Revolution stands as one of my top games of the past decade. Screw their cash-grabbing Marvel project and why the hell is Eidos Montreal doing Tomb Raider now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caesar Clown Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Gotta have a new Tomb Raider game out in time for the Tomb Raider movie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially if the story is going to be left unfinished... Human Revolution is excellent. I didn't think the story was unfinished at all (although the choices to get endings were kind of lame). I really should get Mankind Divided. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuffyZorugelion Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Human Revolution is the best game on PS3 in my opinion. The gameplay is excellent, story incredible and so is the sound world. Highly recommend playing it and I don't think any other first person stealth game really fairly compares to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NullRay85 Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 That's a letdown, especially when Mankind Divided left a lot of plot threads unresloved... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombie-Valentine Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 (edited) Seriously?? Damn... foreseeable future probably won't be until the year the actual game takes place, haha. It's always a shame when publishers put a halt on a franchise due to "shifting focuses" and then the story never gets a proper conclusion, especially something as good as Deus Ex. At least there's some new dlc that's dropped recently, though one is just for Breach. Edited February 15, 2017 by Zombie-Valentine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
