Final Fantasy developer Square Enix is helping out Eidos Montreal with Deus Ex 3, it was revealed today. Specifically, Square Enix is helping Eidos to develop the cutscenes and in-game cinematics.
While it may seem like an unusual partnership, Square Enix is apparently very proud to be working on the Deus Ex franchise and is keen to help Eidos on other IPs that are in production - Thief 4 in particular.
"The people in Tokyo are just so glad to work on it," said Eidos' Stephane D'Astous in a comment to Edge. "This is the first project for them that's a non-Final Fantasy title--they even want to work on Thief 4 too."
Square Enix bought out the UK-based Eidos earlier this year after the company fell on hard times and started looking for buy-out offers. While EA and Ubisoft were other contenders for the ownership of the Deus Ex, Thief and Tomb Raider franchises that Eidos owns, it was Square that closed the deal in the end.
News on Deus Ex 3 itself has been slow over the past few months, with an expect 2009 release date silently sliding out of sight while Eidos continues to work on the title. It has been confirmed that the game is a cyberpunk prequel to the first game though and that it won't be getting a console release due to the complexity of the game.

:piss consoles :piss2
Deus Ex is a fairly big name, I'm sure the PC version could push a million or so.
What other games? There was only 1. ONLY 1.I like how you all think a sequel to one of the most beloved PC franchises couldn't push a million units.
All the previous Deus Ex games combined didn't push a million.
Hey, if we're lucky, they might even get Tetsuya Nomura to design some of the character models. :cookiem
To be fair, it might get a million downloads.:teehee

I like how you are apparently living in a fantasy world.
Including torrented downloads, sure, it will probably get a million players.
I await the PS3/360 port announcement at E3 2010. This is just humoring the PCfags, who can make :smug faces at people but get slapped around when a console port is made.

How do PCfags get slapped around when they are playing games at 1080p and 60 fps while the console plebeians have to settle with sub HD and sub 30 fps? :smug
Wait, it's PC only?
Uhhhhhhhh...wow, not sure how that is gonna work financially, but go for it dudes

And they decided to do the very next one on all platforms because they actually wanted to try to get some money.

I think it's a good thing if they make games for all systems as long as one of them don't get the shaft.
Well, part of that is becaue they're also trying to show off their multiplat Cryengine 3.

pcfags have been getting desperate lately.
i guess that is what happens when your platform of choice is enjoying a slow, painful, death.
Haha, I cant believe yall is arguging over this. You are forgetting the fact that Deus Ex is garbage, there aint no saving this turd. Crysis is the same thing. Turd crap TURD
"There weren't enough exciting, memorable moments [in the original]," Dugas explained." It was aimed more towards a simulation rather than a game experience."
The problem isn't the cost, it's the value. I can afford to get the latest PC tech but why would I want to spend money for a top of the line gaming rig when when all I'm going to play is a worthless generic medieval fantasy game, fighting a bunch of shitty Orcs?

Why spend money on a console when all you are going to play is a worthless generic weeaboo button masher, fighting a bunch of shitty Chinese people? ???

Console distinguished effete fellows shield themselves with 30 million copies of Wii Play :lol
Can't wait to play the definitive version of DX3 with precise mouse control, high resolution + AA/AF, 60 fps and mods :drool
Why do the console-tards always get so defensive whenever a big-budget PC exclusive is announced? It is a mystery.
"Big-budget", "PC exclusive"?

I'm still betting that there will be a console version of Diablo 3. The PCtard suicide would be delicious.
You're a beautiful, technically superior, dying breed that nobody is willing to save. Just accept it.spoiler (click to show/hide)(http://i843.photobucket.com/albums/zz352/loaloauk/avatar5.jpg)[close]
No you don't, stop spreading your FUD.
That's because I'm a Cameron-furfag. Avatar looks better than Allah's own creations :bow :bow
