First Live Action Trailer For Deus Ex: Mankind Divided Unveiled

Square Enix and Eidos Montréal unveiled their Live Action Trailer for the much anticipated Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. 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 will launch on August 23 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Windows PC.

John Breeden II

As a journalist John has covered everything from rural town meetings to the U.S. Congress and even done time as a crime reporter and photographer.|His first venture into writing about the game industry came in the form of a computer column called "On the Chip Side," which grew to have over 1 million circulation and was published in newspapers in several states. From there he did several "ask the computer guy" columns in magazines such as Up Front! in New Mexico and Who Cares? in Washington D.C. When the Internet started to become popular, he began writing guided Web tours for the newly launched Washington Post online section as well as reviews for the weekend section of the paper, something he still does from time to time. His experience in trade publications came as a writer and reviewer for Government Computer News. As the editor of GiN, he demands strict editorial standards from all the writers and reviewers. Breeden feels the industry needs a weekly, reliable trade publication covering the games industry and works tirelessly to accomplish that goal.
