- Deus Ex Go, Hitman Sniper, Lara Croft: Relic Run, and Tomb Raider Reloaded are now back on Android and iOS.
- These games were developed by Square Enix Montreal, which was renamed Studio Onoma before shutting down.
- While Deus Ex Go is still a paid game, the rest are available to download for free.
Some of the best mobile games we thought were gone for good: Deus Ex Go, Hitman Sniper, Lara Croft: Relic Run, and Tomb Raider Reloaded, to name a few, have silently made an appearance back in the storefronts. These games are back now to play on both Android and iOS.
The titles are now handled by Deca Games, a studio owned by Embracer Group
The return was seemingly first spotted by PocketGamer, and these games are now being managed by Deca Games. Interestingly enough, the German game developer and publisher is an Embracer-owned studio, operating for close to a decade now.
If you find these names familiar, I’m guessing you might have heard the story behind these titles’ shutdown previously. These titles were originally developed by Square Enix Montreal, a studio that was later renamed Studio Onoma after being acquired by Embracer Group in May 2022 in a $300 million deal.
However, coming as a major surprise not long after, in November 2022, the studio announced the shutdown of four games, including Hitman Sniper: The Shadows, which had only been out for a few months, alongside several other popular titles.
Arena Battle Champions, Deus Ex Go, and Space Invaders: Hidden Heroes were the other three games that were met with the same fate. Many of us were disappointed to see these creative, premium mobile experiences disappear with no clear future.
If you are among the ones interested, you can go ahead and search the aforementioned titles via the publisher’s Google Play Store and App Store pages. While Deus Ex GO remains a premium offering on mobile, the rest of them are free-to-play.
