Efter et par mystiske teaser-billeder og kryptiske hentydninger, kunne Eidos Montreal-chef, David Anfossi, kunne i går aftes lukke op for posen og fortælle om hvad fremtiden bringer for for Deus Ex-serien. Anfossi kunne fortælle, at Eidos i de seneste 18 måneder har været i sving med Deus Ex Universe. Det er ikke et enkelt spil, men en fællesbetegnelse for fremtidige Deus Ex-spil, og de vil alle være forbundet på via samme “univers”. Anfossi kunne også fortælle, at “spillet” / konceptet er under udvikling til PC, next-gen konsollerne, smart-phones, tablets – ja stort set alle devices. Mere specifikt fortæller han, at første udspil allerede er i vælten til PC, PlayStation 4 og Xbox One. Eidos kunne slutteligt lige give os det første billede af hvordan Deus Ex: Universe kunne tage sig ud.

The concept behind Deus Ex: Universe is to create an ongoing, expanding and connected game world built across a generation of core games. It’s a commitment on our part to deliver meaningful content that expands the franchise on a regular basis and to deliver a deep conspiracy that will span several connected Deus Ex games, creating a more immersive and richer experience than ever before. Deus Ex: Universe will include PC and console games, but also additional Deus Ex games and experiences available in other media such as tablets, smartphones, books, graphic novels, etc… You might have seen the name pop up recently in the press – well this is what it’s all about.

I’m pleased to confirm that we are already into production of the starting point for Deus Ex: Universe with a new game for PC and next-generation consoles. We’re very excited about it at the studio and I wanted to let you know that most of the team behind Deus Ex: Human Revolution is already working hard on this new game. It took us four years to learn how to create a unique Deus Ex experience with Human Revolution and it was important for me to keep this knowledge within the franchise.
