[QUOTE="Admin, post: 59791, member: 1"] The actor who plays Adam Jensen from Deus Ex has said he has yet to be asked to reprise his role. Elias Toufexis, who played protagonist Jensen in Eidos Montreal’s Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, took to Twitter to reply to a question asking if he was working on a new game in the series. “Yeah, as happy as I am to be busy, I wish I was even more busy on a new Deus Ex. I am not under any NDA for Deus Ex because no one has called me about it. Truly.” Toufexis’ tweet has saddened fans of the series, which was left unfinished after 2016’s Mankind Divided ended on a cliffhanger. In November, [URL='https://twitter.com/jasonschreier/status/1587515910046220288']Bloomberg's Jason Schreier tweeted[/URL] to say a new Deus Ex was in the works at Eidos Montreal, although still in the "very very early" stages of development.

The sale, which is set to go through by September this year, means Embracer owns Crystal Dynamics, Eidos Montreal and Square Enix Montreal, as well as IPs including Tomb Raider, Deus Ex, Thief and Legacy of Kain. It’s entirely possible Eidos Montreal intends to continue Adam Jensen’s story with Elias Toufexis reprising the role, but is yet to get far enough along with the project to strike a deal. Perhaps Eidos Montreal decided to go in a new direction with a new protagonist. Or, perhaps this new Deus Ex was canceled entirely.

In an open letter to the company’s 17,000 staff, CEO Lars Wingefors said Embracer would decrease spending across the board, reduce third-party publishing, and “put greater focus on internal IP and increase external funding of large-budget games”.
