Currently Eidos is working on a new IP
As someone wth no attachment to Deus Ex, this is good to hear.
Everyone can wish for free. Even Eidos. But after Mankind Divided I really don't see another Deus Ex game getting a similar budget. Let alone a bigger one.
Look I fucking loved the last Deus Ex games. But I fear if another 'big' budget Deus Ex game fails to sell it'd completely nuke the franchise forever. It'd be in a worse state than Mirror's Edge :(

two imsim franchises from an AAA dev that isn't the perennial exception, Arkane? we can dream, but I'm not getting my hopes up
Mankind Divided and HR don't even come close to scale and complexity of Cyberpunks world so I doubt they can. Everyone loves to rag on CP 77 but basically no developer could achieve what they did besides maybe Rockstar or Naughty Dog.
Schreier has given his blessing and insight. Expectations officially managed.
If they had actual dickloads of money, maybe they could achieve the same scale as an Elder Scrolls game or Kingdom Come (those are also immersive sims), but the resources going into one big city would be better spent on making multiple hub areas. Maybe multiple large levels based in the same city, like in Dishonored.
Actually Dishonored plays way more closely to the original Deus Ex than its sequels do (same main designer and all), so maybe look at those for inspiration too.

Man, why would Grubb "leak" this if it's not remotely close to existing? Does he need attention that badly?
I hate you both
I don't think Deus Ex going open world would really add anything to the game, so hopefully "what Cyberpunk 2077 couldn't" doesn't include that.
A new IP is fine too although one has to wonder what that IP will be about.
By "doing what cyberpunk 2077 couldn't" I assume they mean they plan on releasing a finished game.
"Do what Cyberpunk couldn't" is concerning, on the face of it.
Scope creep would kill Deus Ex - a big open world GTA-like would lose what audience Deus Ex has, and wouldn't attract much of any other crowd because there's no way they'd ever get the budget to do it properly.
Please just keep it Deus Ex - if you have the money to expand the scope, then make it more globe-trotting like the original. Three city hubs. Stuff like that.

I wish them the best of luck as making a game that does what Cyberpunk couldn't is a MASSIVE undertaking for even the best in the business with truckloads of money and support. We're talking making a living breathing open world with cutting edge graphics when it releases and a reactionary set of gameplay systems that take into account your myriad of diverse decisions from upgrades to paths taken to people spoken to and how you do so, etc. That all with the fact it takes an army a long time to make a straight forward single player game. Good luck. Seriously I'd love to see them pull it off.
Honestly at most I'd just want multiple hub cities at most. Immersive sims are best when kept tight.
Dang it, no continuation to Jensen's story any time soon :(.
