Square Enix and Eidos-Montréal have revealed the announcement trailer for the next game in the Deus Ex series, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided.
The game is set 2029, two years after the events of Deus Ex: Human Revolution and follows on from the ‘Aug Incident’ that resulted in the death of millions of people. This has created a divide between those who have augmentations, and those who do not. Playing as series hero Adam Jensen you will be tasked to “uncover the truths that are hidden by a cloak of new conspiracies”.
The announcement trailer is all CGI and does not contain any gameplay but Eidos-Montréal say they “will have quite a lot to show you in the coming months.”

Shame there’s no gameplay footage but I’m willing to part with some cash based on this trailer and how good the last one was.

Looks good! Looking forward to its release already.

Looks like it could have a much stronger story then Human Revolution if Square is not misleading us like they did with the previous game. For example, a lot of trailers had interesting scenes, that weren’t in the game! I do hope they won’t outsource the bosses again as the original HR’s bosses were designed for the Adam Rambo players and Solid Jensen Players had no chance of success if they dared to use common sense and not bring shotguns, pistols for non-lethal kills.
It does seem like that they intend for Adam to be more lethal, more agile and to be the Deus Ex version of a Marvel Sentinel. I do wonder if Human Revolution is now a reboot and this is the future of the franchise or if it’s just another prequel.

Didn’t realise the boss fights were outsourced.
But I am completely with you after putting all effort into being stealthy at first only to find the first boss fight was impossible to overcome.

I loved DE:HR and I’m looking forward to this new chapter. I hope they retain the same gameplay style.

Well, they got me to buy HR on Wii U. So, mission accomplished?

Could that be an earlier version of Gunther Hermann from the original Deus Ex as the bad guy in that trailer?
