Why you should play Deus Ex: Mankind Divided on Prime Gaming
Released in 2016, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is the sequel to 2011’s Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Players again control Adam Jensen, an augmented supersoldier, on a mission to dismantle a secretive organization controlling the world.
The story touches on some pretty routine beats for the cyberpunk genre, looking at subject matters like what it means to be human and the dangers of trading personal freedom for security. But what elevates Mankind Divided’s story is its focus on player choice — how you approach a situation, and the decisions you make, will greatly impact the final outcome.
However, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided isn’t just about the story. It’s also a total blast to play. The game is set primarily in the central hub of Prague, but you also visit additional locations including London and Dubai. Each level allows you to approach encounters as you wish. You’re free to ghost through an area relying solely on stealth, or you can equip yourself with a powerful gun and blast your way through to your objective. The choice is yours.
Upgrading Adam Jensen is another key pillar of Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. You are given access to a suite of augmentations that range from improving your combat abilities to allowing you to hack secure terminals. Players are given the freedom to create a character that best suits their preferred playstyle, and some of the late-game upgrades are pretty epic.
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is an immersive and cinematic sci-fi shooter (though if you’d prefer, you can complete almost the whole game without firing a single gun) that combines blockbuster thrills and a choice-driven narrative. It’s a game that was worth paying for at release, so now being able to grab it for free is an unmissable offer. If you have Amazon Prime, be sure to head over to Prime Gaming and claim this awesome freebie right now.
