A new Deus Ex game is in development for next-gen machines, Eidos Montreal has confirmed.

Coming to next-gen consoles and PCs, the game will be published under the Deus Ex: Universe banner.

Described as an "ongoing, expanding and connected game world built across a generation of core games", Deus Ex: Universe encompasses PC and console games, as well as titles on smartphones, tablets, books and graphic novels.

"It's a commitment on our part to deliver meaningful content that expands the franchise on a regular basis and to deliver a deep conspiracy that will span several connected Deus Ex games, creating a more immersive and richer experience than ever before," explains Eidos studio head David Anfossi.

Most of the team behind Deus Ex: Human Revolution are working on the PC and next-gen game, which is seen as the starting point of Deus Ex: Universe.

The first piece of concept art (above) represents a 'ghetto-city' voluntarily built in order to separate the classes.

The upcoming game will focus on "trans-humanism segregation", offering a "dark and dystopian vision" of things to come.

Eidos also revealed the release date for Deus Ex: Human Revolution - The Director's Cut.

Adding second screen support, refined boss fights, developer commentary and enhanced visuals, Human Revolution - Director's Cut will be available in North America from October 22 and in Europe on October 25.
