Deus Ex Overview
The Deus Ex universe explores a gritty, cyberpunk future where a complex web of competing forces push the boundaries of what's considered “human.” Tech corporations, government interests, and secret societies endlessly backstab one another to create biotech augmentations ranging from the mildly helpful to the supremely unethical -- and it’s up to the player to unravel the mystery that surrounds them.
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, the latest entry in the franchise, brings a host of new gameplay mechanics and feature improvements to learn. This overview guide outlines everything you need to know to get started with the latest Deus Ex adventure.

Improved Combat and Tactics
With multiple pathways and tactics available to tackle each objective, players have a ton of new options to deal with enemies and progress in Mankind Divided.
