The story doesn’t take advantage of the massive buildup that got us to this point. But time is running out, as the United Nations prepare to pass a controversial law that could only lead to more bloodshed. Adam is sent to investigate who is behind the attack while he works as a double agent for the Juggernaut Collective, a hacktivist group trying to expose global corruption. When a terrorist bomb attack hits a local train station, things start to escalate.
The incident has seen Prague spearheading the anti-augmentation laws and the tensions are running high. With Sarif Industries bankrupt, he now works as the only augmented field agent for Task Force 29, a counter-terrorism division of Interpol with the HQ in Prague. Adam Jensen has survived the massacre, but he struggles to remember how. The augs have been forced into segregation as a fearful society is turning its back on them.
The aftermath of this tragedy has provoked civil unrest on a global scale. Two years have passed since the Panchaea incident which sent the augmented humans into an uncontrollable frenzy, causing the biggest loss of lives in recent history. Mankind Divided starts off with a skippable 12-minute recap meant to refresh one’s memory on the troubling events of Human Revolution. But since its release, the future of this series has been left in a state of continuous suspense and I wanted to know why. Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is the second installment in what was meant to be a prequel trilogy to one of my most appreciated game of all times. In the wake of the Cyberpunk 2077 fiasco and disappointment, I thought about revisiting a thematically related game that I always felt sorry I didn’t get to finish.
