A trademark filing by Square-Enix in Europe has revealed the title of the next game in the Deus Ex series. Sure, that’s not big news in and of itself, but now that they’ve settled on a name (Deus Ex: Human Revolution), you can bet they’ll get some title art and a cinematic trailer out quick as a flash. GDC maybe? Or E3?

I think we can all agree that Deus Ex: Invisible War was a bit of a letdown. Hopefully the next one will open things up a little more. It always seems a little silly to me when people remove what made a game sell in the first place and expect people to buy it anyway. With Sonic it was the speed, with Final Fantasy it was the sprawl, and with Deus Ex it’s the complexity. Bring it back, people!
