E3 2015: 20 Jaw-Dropping Game Reveals You Need To Know About

13. Deus Ex: Mankind Divided

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdVexfTfevU In a move that could spell disaster for the latest Deus Ex if the team don't pull it off with enough weight, purpose and necessity, Mankind Divided is electing to draw on real-world racial tensions and historical comparisons (complete with an in-lore label of a 'Mechanical Apartheid') in their depiction of the fallout from Human Revolution. Basically, the disastrous ending of the first game totally happened despite the multiple choices you were given, as people woke up to find the augmented limbs they'd come to rely on weren't as reliable as once thought - leading to a very violent divide between the 'augs' and the rest of mankind. You're still playing as Adam Jensen as it looks like the main quest will be getting caught up in saving the rest of 'your people', all the while being on the lookout for a returning villain from the first game. E3 saw the first bout of gameplay footage and within were some of the newest augments themselves; ranging from a four-person electric shocker to a full suit of armour you can equip in a bind. As Human Revolution rolled out its upgrades across the whole game, it'll be up to MD to prove the iconic experimentation within the levels themselves gives you enough purpose and enjoyment to deploy them all.
