Eidos Montreal boss David Anfossi talks Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Deus Ex, and The Avengers

Eidos Montreal, the studio making this fall’s Shadow of the Tomb Raider, casts its own striking umbra on the gaming world. Founded in 2007, it opened with an enormous staff and a highly specific goal. With 350 employees in tow, the Eidos Montreal mission was to create dense, story-driven, single-player role-playing games in the then-defunct Deus Ex and Thief series.

In other words, it should have closed almost immediately.
