These rumors come from prolific insider Jeff Grubb, speaking on Giant Bomb's Game Mess Mornings podcast. Grubb notes that any internal discussions about Eidos Montreal's next project are very early, but he says that the studio is eager to return to Deus Ex.

"It's early. The rumbling I've heard is that the studio wants to immediately get into Deus Ex. They want to get right back into that. They want to challenge - they want to do what Cyberpunk 2077 couldn't, and stuff like that."

was excited, until I saw that it is sourced by Grubb.

that said he brought nothing new to the other rumor already circulating from mid-week.

 

[Kerotan]

They will never have the budget to do what 2077 couldn't. Would be hyped though.

Edit, wrong quote

 

[Amiga]

Will be challenging with the standard Cyberpunk 2077 set.

Played a small part of Deus Ex MD... and the part where you can only do a couple stealth takedowns and then eat a candy bar to fill up the gauge to do more is absolutely stupid.

Make an actual Deus Ex game for once, please, like the original...

It's not rocket science, nor hard to do, if they didn't care about appealing to casuals.

Lol

Oh god, please no. How about just doing what the original Deus Ex could 20 years ago? Just update the controls and visuals.

agreed, it is not that hard. so many games also have a boring, bland lead character like JC Denton.

Human revolution and mankind divided already did what cyberpunk 2077 couldn't

 

[Roni]

Hopefully it's a straight continuation of Mankind Divided and not a reboot of any sort...

I'm always down for more Deus Ex, so I hope this rumour pans out.

Human Revolution and Mankind Divided were terrific, however, Mankind Divided suffered from the smaller plot focus where it felt almost inconsequential. If they're going to go big, I hope they don't bastardise the experience in a bid to make it more "accessible" to sell more copies.
