Although our review is embargoed for another week or so, Square Enix said everything else was up for grabs. We'll be updating this post throughout the day, as well as updating the official WorthPlaying Twitter feed. Bookmark this page and follow us on Twitter for live updates. You can also tweet us specific questions for the developers, and we'll try to answer the most interesting ones."
Hanzala from eXputer says, "After multiple delays, cancellations, and ownership changes, the misfortune of Deus Ex continues; this gem of a series deserves better."
One can only hope at this point Embracer will need to generate an influx of cash flow, and what better way to do so than to sell off some of its IPs... namely Deus Ex, to a competent and talented studio capable of delivering a game noteworthy of the name in future. And thinking about it further, I don't know why Embracer would sit on the IP vs sell it if it means staying in business or not.
Yeah, they should be renamed to Embarrassment Group at this point. Bought every studio they could lay their hands on just to fire people from them, close them or cancel their games.
100 % The CEO is a PIG and it showcases how Embarrassment Group has always been a sham of a company
within the game industry !
Seems like the most turnover is being generated by companies making acquisitions and cuts.
It's like they don't know their behinds from their elbows.
UPS just signed all their drivers to a huge contract.
In order to afford the contract, UPS is laying off management.
That's how all of this should work. Lay off management. That's how a business can be more "efficient."
I know, but they laid off 97 employees and canceled my most anticipated release from their studio.
Bro f$&k Embracer. How do companies not even understand basic concepts like “don’t count your chickens before they hatch”? And now all these peoples lives are upended because of it.
Fkn trash. They had no business buying up all those studios with house money. I been waiting so long for the next Deus Ex. All these large scale consolidations are bleeding out the industry one at a time.
They were banking on Saudi money. When the Saudi Government backed down everything fell apart.
Embracer Group has reportedly canceled a new Deus Ex game after two years in development and laid off some staff.
Who even cancels a new Deus Ex game? Are they stupid or something? Its Deus Ex ffs!
Embracer is now acting worse than Square Enix!
