I know, I know! Some might argue that Human Revolution is the bestDeus Exgame, but they’re wrong, it’s clearlyDeus Ex: Mankind Divided. The last, new Deus Ex game to be made will be free to keep from the Epic Games Store for a week starting March 14th.
Head over to itsstore pagefrom that date until March 21st and you’ll be able to add it to your Epic Games Store account for free, forever.
As we all know, the nearly 24-year-old original Deus Ex is tough to play in the modern era, due to some rudimentary AI, awkward controls, on-the-nose writing, and long outdated level design. [Audience boos] Mankind Divided, meanwhile, is a slick modernisation of the concept. I’m not sure its side quest writing is ever as strong as it is in Human Revolution, but the open world, combat and stealth are all substantially better. As I wrote in myDeus Ex: Mankind Divided review:
Hopefully the series rises again someday in the future. Until then, Mankind Divided is a great way to try it out.
