According to a recent claim, Eidos Montreal is creating a new Deus Ex game

It has been reported that Human Revolution and Mankind Divided creators Eidos Montreal would bring back the cyberpunk setting of Deus Ex. Following yesterday’s disclosure that sibling company Onoma is shutting down, Bloomberg reported the tidbit of information indicating that the upcoming Deus Ex game is at the very, very early phases of development. Eidos Montreal is also rumored to be working on a brand-new game and contributing to the co-development of a few Microsoft-owned franchises, including the upcoming Fable.

Since Eidos Montreal’s last attempt at Deus Ex was six years ago, it seems like a reasonable amount of time has passed before any new installment in the franchise. More Deus Ex titles, as well as other purchased IP like Tomb Raider and Legacy Of Kain, were seen as having “huge promise” by the development studio’s new owner, Embracer Group, earlier this year. The creators of Legacy of Kain, Crystal Dynamics, have already conducted surveys to gauge possible interest in new games in that series, as I mentioned last month.

Embracer acquired a number of Square Enix studios in May; the transaction was finalized in August. Only a few weeks after the studio announced its rebranding as Onoma, it was revealed yesterday that the Square Enix Montreal studio will close. Deus Ex Go creator Onoma, which shut down, would send some employees to Eidos Montreal to work on projects there.

There are currently no confirmed details on the release date of the forthcoming Deus Ex. When we learn more, I’ll be sure to let you know. Why not go at our ranking of the top PC stealth games while you wait?

There hasn’t been much buzz surrounding Suicide Squad since its release in February. Warner Bros. was let down by the game’s underwhelming sales, but they remained committed to turning their live service vision into a reality. An exciting new DLC update has been released, introducing The Crown Prince of Crime to the game.

As the game’s first live season begins, players will have the chance to take on Green Lantern and, in the end, unlock The Joker as a playable character. Which Joker are you referring to? This is quite intricate. Furthermore, players can look forward to the inclusion of a Battle Pass, a variety of new shop items available for purchase, exciting Incursions and Strongholds to partake in, as well as an expanded selection of Infamy Sets and Notorious Gear to amass.

What are your thoughts on this? Does the allure of The Joker entice you to return to Suicide Squad, or have you remained a loyal fan all along? We value your feedback and would love to hear your thoughts in the comments section below.

While Sony may not classify Gran Turismo 7 as a live-service game, the team at Polyphony Digital certainly approaches it with a similar mindset. The game continues to impress with every new update, and although v1.44 may be smaller compared to previous versions, it still manages to enhance the already extensive content of this simulation racer.

The update, now available worldwide, introduces three new cars: the Audi R8 Coupé V10 Plus ’16, the Lamborghini Urus ’18, and the Toyota GT-One (TS020) ’99. Furthermore, it introduces three fresh events to World Circuits, an extra menu to conquer in the GT Café single-player campaign, and a collection of livery stickers inspired by the upcoming Highspeed Étoile anime, set to debut next week in Japan.

If you’re not already acquainted with Highspeed Étoile, you can watch a trailer right here. “Sony has announced that a collection of 26 stickers, consisting of 8 title logos and 18 main character stickers, will be made available for a limited time,” stated Sony on the PS Blog. In addition, Fukushima will be included as a backdrop in the title’s beloved photography mode.
