I think it's quite evident that Jensen in DXMD is a clone (different body from the Jensen in DXHR). There are just too many story elements pointing in this direction, as discussed in my post Is Adam Jensen a Clone in Mankind Divided? A Review of the Evidence. Obviously, nothing is certain, but it's hard to ignore these clues.

People have written many times that cloninig isn't possible, but these counterviews rely on their own assumptions. For example, storywise, there is not even a strict need to grow a new Jensen. The Illuminati could have had multiple Jensens stored, and simply transferred the memories of the DXHR one to the DXMD one. Furthermore, technology at this time appears to be more advance than what is suggested in the original Deus Ex. We have advanced augs like the TITAN, for example. The issue of what is or is not technologically feasible is primarily determined by the story, more so than the other way around. Right now, I think the story is pointing in the direction that the Jensen in DXMD is not the same body as the Jensen in DXHR.
