Exciting Insights: Major Changes in Store for Die-Hard Deus Ex Fans!

Deus Ex fans eagerly awaiting the next chapter in Adam Jensen's story after Mankind Divided might find themselves disappointed by a new update Stay tuned to discover the latest developments that may leave fans yearning for more

The voice actor for Adam Jensen, the protagonist of Deus Ex, has recently confirmed that he is not currently involved in the franchise. This comes as disappointing news to many fans who had hoped for a sequel, following previous rumors of a new game in the series. Released in 2016, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided was highly praised for its mature sci-fi setting and immersive sim gameplay. Despite the critical acclaim, the game did not achieve the sales necessary to warrant a sequel. Adding to the frustration, the game ended on a cliffhanger, leaving fans eagerly awaiting the resolution of the story. With the news that the voice actor is not working on the franchise, it appears that fans may have to wait longer for a sequel, if one is even planned.

Elias Toufexis, known for his role as Adam Jensen in the last two mainline Deus Ex games, has confirmed that he is not currently involved in any new Deus Ex projects. Despite being occupied with other ventures, Toufexis has expressed his fondness for the cyberpunk franchise and mentioned that he has not been in contact with the series' developer.

In 2020, journalist Jason Schreier, who is well-connected in the industry and known for his accuracy, stated that a new Deus Ex game was in the early stages of development. This announcement came shortly after the Embracer Group acquired Eidos Montreal from Square Enix, implying a potential change in the studio's direction. However, no official information has been provided since then.

At this point, all speculation regarding the matter is solely based on rumors. One rumor suggests that there was a game in progress for the franchise during the previous year, but it remains uncertain whether the project has been terminated or is still ongoing. Additional rumors hint at the possibility of the new Deus Ex being a cooperative game or being set in South Asia, as recent job postings have suggested. Nonetheless, it is still unclear whether the upcoming title will feature Adam Jensen as the main character and follow the storyline from the previous game, and whether Toufexis will reprise their role.
