Rumor - Eidos hiring for next-gen Deus Ex title

**Blacksite** · 05-16-2012

A “major Canadian company” has various vacancies available for a “semi open-world action adventure title that responds to player choice and interaction.” Superannuation, which posted the link on Twitter, believes the company to be Eidos and suggests the title could be Deus Ex 4.

The project, according to the listing, is based upon an existing IP which is a “well known and respected action/adventure title, with elements of choice and stealth within the gameplay.”

Future iterations of the franchise also “intend to really take advantage of the new platforms coming in the next two years to provide an experience with unparralled realism, depth and consequence for player action and choice.”

The current vacancies are:

Cinematics Director
Senior Gameplay Programmer
Lead Technical Developer
Level Artists
Technical Artist
Lead Artist
Lead Programmer
Senior Programmer

Deus Ex 4 was the obvious choice for Superannuation’s post instead of Thief 4 due to the later already confirmed as being in development. Add in the fact Human Revolution has stealth elements and player choices, it’s not a stretch.

Still, it could also be for Thief 4 and the title of the game just wasn’t mentioned.

Just file the Deus Ex bit away as a rumor for now until we find out something more concrete.

I hope this is true. I love the Deus Ex games.

I absolutely love Human Revolution but the endings were a huge letdown. I really hope that they improve on that plus the boss fights which were mediocre.
