If you haven’t already than I really cannot recommend Deus Ex: Mankind divided to you enough. With its story of conspiracy and political intrigue somehow perfectly balanced with Adam’s robo arms and ability to shoot frickin lasers. With so many explore able routes and options for dealing with situations there is plenty to keep you interested for several play throughs and even more when you crack on with new game plus!

Good not great. While I liked many aspects of it, it feels like it had never lived up to its full potential.

Overall, the game is very polished, takes all the mistakes from the previous game and deftly avoids them, whilst giving us a lot more to play with. The lack of length is the main downfall, along with a poor narrative conclusion.

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is a great follow-up to its excellent predecessor. The biggest problem is the story, which was more engaging last time.

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.

We've all been waiting for the fourth sequel of what is rightfully considered one of the best, if not THE best PC games of all time. How to reach the level of DeusEx is a question that Edios from Montreal yet again failed to answer perfectly.

You see, Mankind Divided is what Human Revolution should've been, it just took Eidos Montreal five years to get there.

The final product turned out to be quite flawed, but its presentation and gameplay more than enough to make up for it. I just wish a franchise as historic as this didn't had to fall in the same pitfalls most Triple AAA games nowadays have.

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.

A worthy entry in the Deus Ex series that will please fans of Human Revolution, but the story may leave you wanting more.

The first time that I got to see this game was at EGX 2015 when it was there being showcased and I was very impressed with what I saw. Nearly a year later and I am having the privilege of being able to play the game, and I have to admit that the game starts as it means to go on.

Could it be better? Most certainly, as pointed out in the review. But Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is already great as it is, and you would be remiss to leave it hanging in physical (or digital) stores if you care the slightest bit about RPGs with a deep story, lots of choices and a cyberpunk setting.

Mankind Divided world is huge, detailed, beautiful and ready to be explored! The game rewards exploration and its cyberpunk setting is really appealing to the fans of the series. Although the story seems to be a little off the mark towards the end, the whole package In general is so good that every single RPG fan should play it.

A mechanically solid game with some fantastic level design that sadly delivers a narrative that is ho-hum at best.

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.
