An unannounced Deus Ex game has been unceremoniously canceled by Embracer Group. And according to the voice actor of Jensen, it sounds like this game wasn’t going to feature the main protagonist anyway. So maybe it’s GOOD that it got canceled?

Additional Context:
In the ever-tumultuous universe of gaming, the recent cancellation of an unannounced Deus Ex game by Embracer Group has stirred up the cybernetic community. Embracer Group, grappling with financial turbulence following a failed deal with Savvy Games Group, a Saudi government-funded company, has been on a cost-cutting spree. This has led to layoffs across various studios, including Eidos Montreal, the developers behind the Deus Ex franchise. Unfortunately, 97 developers from Eidos Montreal were laid off as part of this restructuring.
What makes this cancellation intriguing is the hint that the game might not have featured Adam Jensen, the iconic protagonist of the series. Elias Toufexis, the voice actor for Jensen, indicated on Twitter that he had not been contacted for any work on a Deus Ex project in the past two years. This suggests that the now-canceled game likely did not involve Jensen’s story.
While some fans might feel relieved that a non-Jensen Deus Ex game won’t see the light of day, it’s important to remember the human cost of such cancellations in the gaming industry. The layoffs at Eidos Montreal are a stark reminder of the volatility and challenges faced by game developers.
The future of the Deus Ex franchise remains uncertain under the ownership of Embracer Group, especially after this recent development. Fans of the series are left to wonder what could have been and what the future holds for this beloved cyberpunk saga.
