Speaking to Variety’s The Cut Scene at the recent Disney Epic Mickey unveiling in London, Junction Point Studios founder and Deus Ex creator Warren Spector revealed that the studio’s projects pre-Mickey aren’t dead – both titles were acquired by Disney when it bought Junction Point back in 2007.
One, said Spector, was a “a big, BIG fantasy game that I had been wanting to do for about 15 years. My wife and I created a world and a whole story arc for DC comics. They decided not to pick it up. I loved this world and the characters we had created.”
The other was described as a near-future sci-fi game, with Spector hinting the game is a spiritual successor to Deus Ex.
“There were and still are ‘Deus Ex’ stories I would like to tell. That story is not done for me,” he said. “[For the sci-fi game] I sort of filed the serial numbers off. ‘Deus Ex’ was very much a game of the millennium.”
It was also revealed that Spector attempted to regain the rights to Deus Ex from Eidos, but couldn’t prise the IP from the publisher’s hands.
