Adam Jensen’s story - begins in the wake of a mission that goes awry (the training/tutorial mission ) and a train station bombing in Prague that is pinned on augmented terrorists.Īdam Jensen is part of Task Force 29 and an augmented Interpol super agent. Recapping the conspiracy-laden Deus Ex games is more complicated than recapping Doom, e.g. “Went to Hell, blew the sh*t out of demons. It will probably confuse you a little whether or not you played Deus Ex: Human Revolution. You may need to take notes. “Augs” (augmented people) are heavily discriminated against, and the world is trying to figure out what to do with them.Įidos Montreal includes a lengthy intro video recapping the story and events of Human Revolution. Two years after these events the world is still reeling. I couldn’t recapture it all here, but you don’t need to have played Human Revolution to enjoy Mankind Divided.īriefly, at the end of Human Revolution a global signal is triggered by an anti-augmentation nut that drove augmented people bananas and caused them to hurt/kill a lot of people. The events of Human Revolution take place about 2 years prior to the events in Mankind Divided. It’s been 5 years since Deus Ex: Human Revolution and it’s conspiracy-laden, labyrinthine story. Deus Ex: Mankind Divided doesn’t stray far from the established formula of Deus Ex: Human Revolution, but it’s still an engaging, engrossing, and entertaining sequel that is ultimately greater than the sum of its sometimes clunky cybernetic parts.
