Deus Ex: Mankind Divided Reviews
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is an amazing game and a worthy fourth entry in arguably the best videogame series of all time. It took me 30 hours to finish it and I loved all of it.
A polished continuation of an intriguing narrative, Mankind Divided is a familiar, yet enjoyable thirty hours of tech noir.
Pure freedom: that’s Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, which lets you choose your path - it doesn’t matter if you are in a main military mission or just roaming around Prague looking for some side-missions while being discriminated for your augmentations. Adam Jensen is back and it's better than ever.

In a game that needs to balance so much, it finds a way so nearly every feature meets a high-quality standard in this action-RPG
The incredible proliferation of options when it comes to routing your way through some of the larger environments is a clear standout…
Jensen returns for more stealth exploration (or combat chaos if that's your thing) in a darkly dystopian near-future.
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is solid proof of what can be done with a franchise if you take the ideas that worked so well with its return in Human Revolution, and build upon them with great care. There are times the missions can run a little tiring (particularly with certain boss fights), as well as wishing the voice acting was better. Still, it tells one hell of a story, and watching it play out with so many possibilities is a great part of the fun. This is one world you won't get enough of – even if you're tired of issues in the current one.
I know we're only eight months in but Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is certainly a strong contender for game of the year. For those who enjoyed Deus Ex: Human Revolution this is the same but sharper, more focused, and gorgeous to look at. Surprises may be few and far between, but few can craft a world as comprehensively believable as this one.
For such a smart game, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided sure is dumb
Clocking in at around 25 hours, Mankind Divided is a fantastic entry in a franchise that's finally coming into its stride. If Human Revolution was the foundation for Adam Jensen's adventures, Mankind Divided builds upon it in meaningful ways. From a narrative standpoint, it's The Empire Strikes Back of cyberpunk video games - mandatory for fans and newcomers alike.
Mankind Divided is an amazing game that is just as clever, well-written, and non-linear as the original Deus Ex.
What's here is an absolute joy to play. It's hugely immersive and the sort of game which can make hours fly by in the blink of an eye. I can't wait to get playing some more this weekend!
Overall, Deus Ex Mankind Divided is a worthy successor. The gameplay is near-perfect, the story has wonderful twists and turns throughout and despite some occasional graphical issues still manages to look great. If you're a fan of the Deus Ex universe, then I absolutely recommend you pick this up.
Just like its predecessor, the game offers great concepts and gameplay elements, but it fails to package them together decently. Don't expect much improvement here, as it still has most of its previous issues, as well as losing some of the features we liked. Still an OK experience overall considering the fun I had playing it.

A great addition to the Deus Ex mythos, and more than just a better looking Human Revolution. If you're a fan of the series, or even just the last one, then you can't go wrong with Deus Ex: Mankind Divided.
If this piece of software was judged solely on its gameplay, which, flawed as it may be, is very enjoyable, everything would be just fine... but Deus Ex isn't just the sneaking, hacking, and shooting; Deus Ex is about moral dilemmas, engaging conversations, multi-layered characters, a world with personality - it's about the plot and how everything revolves around it. Long story short: Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is a very good game, but a disappointingly forgettable experience.
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided offers the players the freedom to choose their own story. The gameplay shines through the use of augmentations and the story never takes itself lightly by focusing on the tension between humans and augmented humans. If you have enjoyed your time with Deus Ex: Human Revolution, you shouldn't miss out on Adam Jensen's latest adventure.
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is another outstanding entry in the series containing many viable gameplay options, framed around a fascinating—if not thoroughly conclusive—narrative.
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is a very strong game that's dragged down by a lackluster plot and weak story structure. If you enjoyed Human Revolution for the gameplay and exploration, you'll find a lot to like here. This is not a story-driven narrative that advances the world of Deus Ex, but anyone who enjoyed Human Revolution will have fun with Mankind Divided.
As a game, 'Deus Ex: Mankind Divided' has the power to draw me in. That's a power seldom seen at this level, where rebellious heroes and evil organizations are a dime a dozen. With enveloping gameplay, a stimulating story, a signature art style, an excellent soundtrack, and the spin-off-worthy Breach Mode, 'Mankind Divided' is well worth the time and expenditure.
