Following the recent Deus Ex announcement, Eidos Montreal and Square Enix unleash the first trailer for the Director’s Cut, the definitive version of the critically acclaimed Deus EX: Human Revolution.
Praised for its in-game art and cinema-quality storyline, Deus EX: Human Revolution has garnered critical acclaim from the media and consumers alike since its original release in August 2011. In Deus EX: Human Revolution, the year is 2027– a time of great innovation in neuroprosthetics, but also a time of chaos, conspiracy, and social divide. Adam Jensen, a man cybernetically augmented against his own choice, finds himself in the middle of a mysterious, global plot to which he holds the key.
By offering players vastly different ways to play, Deus EX: Human Revolution challenges the foundation of gaming and provides an immersive experience where every choice has a lasting consequence.
Coming in 2014, the Director’s Cut features include visual improvements, overhauled boss fights, reinforced combat mechanics and much more making it the ultimate Human Revolution experience.
Total Game Immersion
- ● You ARE Adam Jensen. The GamePad is Jensen’s Neural Hub, one of his implanted augmentations and possibly his most powerful tool.
- ● The “in-game” menus are now toolkits; they feel like part of the game flow and one of Adam Jensen’s augmentations.
- ● Tongs’s Rescue mission and the entire Missing Link chapter have been integrated seamlessly into the narrative flow of the Director’s Cut.
- ● Original pre-order and other bonus weapons are now at Jensen’s disposal.
Original Game Mechanics utilizing the GamePad
- ● Hacking is now at his best on the GamePad. Use the speed and precision of your fingers to hack on the GamePad while the world remains visible on your primary screen.
- ● The “sniper scope” feature allows any weapon with a scope to use both the GamePad and primary screen for a two-step, precision sniping.
- ● The Toolkits (previously in-game menus) are now all easily displayed and accessible on the GamePad.
- ● The Radar is now featured on the touch screen and is a hybrid of the original radar and the 2D Map. Opening the 2D Map Toolkit allows players to draw hints, paths and notes that will remain on the radar.
- ● The Quick Inventory is now displayed on the GamePad touch screen, leaving the primary screen clear.
- ● Looting shows detailed descriptions about the items and doesn’t require players to access extra menus to see the content.
New Features
- ● Grenade Throw-Back: Grenades near Jensen appear on the GamePad, the player can then swipe the grenade icon to throw the grenade back.
- ● New Augmentation “Tactical Pattern-Recognition System”: Display Jensen’s view through the GamePad touch screen. Moving the GamePad around will move Jensen’s view (the camera) in the same way, using the gyroscope. The NPC closest to Jensen’s center point of view (reticle) will have an extra information panel appearing over his head, giving precious information like the items carried, total health, armor type and state (unconscious, dead, normal). Jensen can still move and shoot while the T.P-R.S is active.
- ● Infologs: Information packages that can contain detailed screenshots, voice recordings, drawing and typed notes all together. Infologs can be toggled as a physical beacon in-game to be played automatically when standing on it. Infologs can be shared through the Miiverse to your friends, which let them view your content in-game, without breaking the immersion.
- ● New Game +: Lengthen the game with the New Game Plus; keeping Jensen’s augmentations on replay.
- ● GamePad Mode: Ability to play on the GamePad (No TV needed).
Fan Features

Technical & Other Improvements
