Deus Ex: Mankind Divided Box Art

This game was released on August 23, 2016 and is no longer available to pre-order. Any incentives that were offered are listed below.

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is an upcoming cyberpunk-themed action RPG developed by Eidos Montreal. Set two years after the events of Human Revolution, it follows the same protagonist Adam Jensen, who is now working for an anti-terrorist organization called Task Force 29.

The game is fundamentally similar to its predecessor, allowing different approaches to achieve your goals and featuring mechanics like hacking and conversation battles. There are new augmentations, weapons, and ammo types available. In addition, Mankind Divided is said to have more verticality and give the player more freedom of movement than before.

The sequel also comes with a standalone game mode called Breach, where players assume the role of a hacker infiltrating and stealing data from servers using a virtual reality interface. The mode plays like an arcade shooter, complete with a scoring system and leaderboards.
