Eidos Montreal reveals Deus Ex Universe, next-gen Deus Ex title in development

Along with announcing the launch dates for Deus Ex Human Revolution: Director's Cut, Eidos Montreal has revealed their future plans for the franchise going into the next generation of consoles. Posted on their blog, Eidos Montreal boss David Anfossi talks about the vision the studio has for Deus Ex Universe.

"The concept behind Deus Ex: Universe is to create an ongoing, expanding and connected game world built across a generation of core game," Anfossi said on Eidos Montreal's official website.

"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."

The team behind Deus Ex: Human Revolution is behind the title in development. All we know about the title so far is the concept art shown above, where a dark and dystopian "ghetto-city" vision sets the tone. We'll keep you updated when more information is available, of course.
