Deus Ex’ Elias Toufexis says “goodbye” to Adam Jensen

Hopefully, not forever.

Deus Ex voice actor Elias Toufexis, who voices lead protagonist Adam Jensen, has said “goodbye” to the character following news of the cancellation of the franchise’s latest sequel.

“As for Jensen, we say goodbye, but hopefully not farewell,” Toufexis wrote on Reddit.

“Maybe someone else will buy the licence. Maybe we’ll make an animated series or finish the game,” he continued. “Elon Musk is a big fan, I think he has some money. Someone ask him!”

Toufexis all-but confirmed the news that a new Deux Ex title had indeed been cancelled following news that those at Eidos-Montreal had lost their jobs.

Deus Ex got cancelled,” he wrote on Twitter. “This other massive game I was both acting and directing on got cancelled and a third game I was acting and directing on got reworked and now starting from scratch, whole new team.

“The video game world is a disaster zone right now.”

Toufexis also noted that he was in a fortunate position, with “many irons in the fire”. He’s scheduled to appear as the character of L’ak in Star Trek Discovery‘s fifth and final season.
