The Cancelled Deus Ex 3 Games by Ion Storm
Added 2017-10-09 14:01:03 +0000 UTCWhat happened to the original Deus Ex 3? As you may have heard, Deus Ex is a popular first-person action-RPG originally conceived by Warren Spector. There are currently four games in the main series: the first two were developed by under Spector’s watch at Ion Storm, while the third and fourth games were developed by Eidos Montreal.
But through a feature on Eurogamer back in 2014, it was revealed that Ion Storm actually worked on two alternative versions of the third installment - called Deus Ex: Insurrection and Deus Ex 3, respectively. During our work on the Unseen64 book we recovered many concept art for Deus Ex 3, but not all of them were featured in the volume. Here in this video you can see more of the unseen Deus Ex.
Deus Ex: Insurrection’s setting saw America falling into bankruptcy in 2027. Other rising superpowers, including China and Russia, were trying to take advantage of this situation and were bankrolling insurgents on US soil, while the European Union attempted to bring the US under its jurisdiction.
This first, third Deus Ex was to take place 25 years before the events of the original game, and saw you playing as Blake Denton, father of the first game’s protagonist, JC Denton.
