I remember seeing before the thing in the backdrop of the first screenshot with lots of fluorescent lights, in a showing of the tech of their new engine.
Hell yes! Lets hope Mankind Divided is closer to Human Revolution rather than Thief or The Fall. It’s a tale of two studios at Eidos Montreal! The screens and concept art look gorgeous.
Oh ho ho ho ho hell yeah. I played the hell out of HR, I will preorder this puppy.
Here’s hoping for boss fights that don’t play like an entirely different game and require cheese tactics. Or, how’s this for a novel idea, no boss fights!
Looks like they finally got an art director capable of more complex thinking than “make everything yellow”. Good.
Make everything shiny and explodey!~
Hey, I loved the art style in the first game.
But color me excited as hell for this - I played DX:HR twice, the second time with the DLC, and then a third time when it came out as a fancy bundle with new boss fight options and other goodies and I enjoyed the hell out of my time in that world each play-through. I’m in day one for this, at this point.
Best news all day!
Chiming in with more support for the “everything yellow” look, I liked it too.
I still wish these games were a little more open, a series of warehouses/military bases/apartment buildings with three accessible apartments, all connected by hallways masquerading as large cities is starting to feel dated, and these screenshots don’t do anything to convince me that’s improving. I don’t need Deus Ex: GTA, but why can’t I run around a city more like Dying Light?
I hope this turns out to be another Deus Ex mobile game.
Lol. I didn’t write it (I thought it was clear with the screenshots) but it’s pc / xbox / ps4.
So what choice are they going to follow for the sequel in terms of how the player ended HR? Will it even matter? I guess the
ending
self destruct
ending isn’t going to be used since
???
Adam is right there in the screen shot

I think the last Deus Ex was good when it was like Mass Effect, and was shitty when it was like Half-Life 2. But maybe this is a unpopular opinion. Hope they focus on having interesting worldbuilding and cool shit
Set in 2029, two years after the events of Human Revolution, Adam Jensen returns and joins forces with an Interpol-funded task force aiming to hunt down and capture augmented terrorists in a world that now hates and fears transhumans. Jensen has a new suite of augmentations that allow him to cleverly navigate stealth, combat, and social interactions, but how Jensen chooses to solve every problem is entirely up to you.
At the end of Human Revolution, the Illuminati caused every transhuman to go into a fight-or-flight response and attack anyone near them. In the next issue of Game Informer, you can find out how this event caused humanity to hate and fear those with augmentations. We spent two days in Eidos-Montreal’s studio, talking with the team and learning about how they build a realistic future. We go in depth on some of Jensen’s new augmentations that help improve the stealth and combat systems, such as the ability to remote hack electronic objects, fire off his nano blade from a distance, and surround himself with a nearly indestructible nanoshield. We also got some great examples on how the game will be as open ended as ever, allowing players to carve their own path through the world. You can only get these details in the latest issue of Game Informer.
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided doesn’t yet have a release date, but it’s headed to PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
Take my money!
Seriously, I really enjoyed HR, despite the boss battles nearly ruining it. The whole “city on top of a city” thing was brilliant.
Yay!
HR was a triumph.
I must admit I liked the last game too. I could choke down the stupid boss fights. I hope for more of an open world feel with more side-activities along the way, but I don’t know how feasible that is given the multiple-style overdesigned level approach they tend to use.
Why can’t mankind just work together for a change?
I’m looking forward to this. Human Revolution is my favorite Deus Ex so far (I didn’t really care much about the first).
