It's been seven long years since Deus Ex: Invisible War delivered УThe Future War on TerrorФ to gamers. Thankfully, Eidos Montreal Lead Writer Mary DeMarle didn't test our knowledge of the previous two games and explained to us in a video interview that you don't need to be fully versed in the series' deep Sci-Fi history. That's because Eidos Montreal doesn't consider the game to be a prequel. It just happens to take place in the Deus Ex universe 25 years before the first title.

Set in 2027, Deus Ex: Human Revolution features a new plot and fresh characters, starting with Adam Jensen. Players control this chief security specialist as he attempts to figure out who was behind an attack on the BioTech firm he was protecting, resulting in him having to become Уmechanically enhancedФ Ц not by choice.




As Mary notes, there's a lot of mystery in the game. What intrigues us even more is that the futuristic story is blended with the Renaissance era themes, demonstrating how the scientific discovery of the past comes full circle.
