Square Enix's science-fiction cyberpunk games franchise bounces back next year.Square Enix have this week announced the development of Deus Ex Universe for release on video games consoles in the not too distant future. Set after the events of 2011's impressive Deus Ex: Human Revolution, this new series of titles will retail in a range of different mediums including video game products, books, smartphone apps and in other forms still to be announced.
The publisher can't be faulted for the sheer scale of its ambition by any means, juggling this major new project with Kingdom Hearts III and Final Fantasy XV. Nevertheless, Human Revolution's level of critical acclaim didn't match that of the original Deus Ex, nor the esteem in which both of those aforementioned franchises are held ahead of their own latest instalments. With this in mind, the team at Square Enix will need to pull out all of the stops in order to offer gamers a worthwhile entry point into what's being dubbed as a whole new 'universe' of narratives.
Deus Ex Universe will commence on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC in 2014.
