Together with Crystal Dynamics, which was previously part of Japan-based developer and publisher Square Enix, Eidos Montreal was sold to Sweden-based company Embracer Group. Crystal Dynamics is currently concentrating on three projects: the Avengers project, Perfect Dark, and a Tomb Raider game developed with Unreal Engine 5. Eidos wants to return to the Deus Ex series.
According to journalist Jeff Grubb, Eidos now wants to turn their attention to a new Deus Ex game. Grubb says on the Giant Bomb podcast, “I’ve heard new things. Eidos wants to reorient itself with the Deus Ex series.
It’s still early, but they want to step into this series as soon as possible. They want to challenge other games. He wants to do what Cyberpunk 2077 couldn’t do and more. These are the sentences that are circulating. Let’s see if it will happen. Like I said, it’s too early.”
