Square Enix’s futuristic action packed sequel – Deus Ex: Mankind Divided – is currently in development for the PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
Last night, a Russian gaming site has leaked some screenshots from the upcoming title in the Deus Ex franchise – and they look jaw-dropping awesome!
The game will take place in 2029, that is two years after the events that took place in Deus Ex: Human Revolution – but unfortunately we don’t know anything more than that, neither the release date.
Since the start of the week, Square Enix has been testing a new game on social media, and Twitch, under the name Can’t Kill Progress. Today they have announced on Twitter that Deus Ex fans should tune in tomorrow at noon (ET) at deusex.com for more info regarding the title’s future.
In October of 2013, Eidos Montreal head David Anfossi had stated that the game will – ” stretch across multiple games. Beyond the PC and console games, Deus Ex: Universe will also span across other media, including mobile games, books and graphic novels.” and that almost all of the original team is going to be working on their new project. The main theme they are going to tackle will be trans-humanism segregation.
In March of 2014, Square Enix filled a trademark for Deus Ex: Mankind Divided at the Office for Harmonization in the Internal Market – Europe’s trademark and design registry, and since then no new info has been announced, or leaked regarding the games development stage.
Combining first person shooter, stealth and role-playing elements, Deus Ex is a cyber-punk themed video-game that has its roots way back in 2000. The game received critical acclaim and commercial success, and the dystopian world has won several awards – according to PC Gamer, it’s the best PC game of all time, and also by UK based gaming magazine PC Zone.
Trans-humanism segregation sounds like something you would find in an Orwellian world.
