The new 'Deus Ex: Mankind Divided' trailer is seriously badass

The future doesn't look easy

The new 'Deus Ex: Mankind Divided' trailer is seriously badass
28 April 2016

The year is 2029. Mechanically augmented humans are outcasts, living a life of total segregation from the rest of society. You're Adam Jensen, an experienced covert operative, forced to work in a world that has grown to despise your kind. Armed with a new arsenal of state-of-the-art weapons and augmentations, you must choose the right approach, along with who to trust, in order to unravel a vast worldwide conspiracy.

Roughly translated, that means you'll be able to tackle the new Deus Ex: Mankind Divided game in any way you see fit. Want to become a tooled up one-man army? Go for it. Prefer sneaking about sticking guards with something sharp and silent? Have a crack. No matter what path you choose, you'll end up looking like a total sci-fi ninja.

Set for release on 23 August on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC, this latest slice of futuristic espionage is shaping up to be a real killer.
