News: A live action short is now available to view for the next Deus Ex game that is slated to come out in the later part of summer.

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is set to be released in August but earlier today Square Enix released a live action trailer to hype the game up. This short immerses you in the world of Deus Ex, providing you with insight as to how things have changed since the events of Deus Ex: Human Revolution, outlining the shift from the golden era of augmentation to the Mechanical Apartheid.

In 2027, mechanically-augmented people all over the world suffered from extreme psychotic delusions, lost control of themselves, and started attacking people. Millions died. Hundreds of thousands more were injured and maimed. In the wake of this global catastrophe, society has become divided by hatred, prejudice, and fear, with many countries now enacting harsh laws. The most notable of these laws is the highly controversial “Human Restoration Act”, aimed at isolating “Augs” and keeping them away from “Naturals”.

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is currently scheduled to launch on August 23, 2016 for the Xbox One, PS4 and PC. Will you be picking it up?
