Finalmente, um dos jogos mais aguardados do ano está prestes a ser lançado.
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided segue acompanhando a saga de Adam Jensen, apresentado em Deus Ex: Human Revolution.
O jogo só será lançado na terça-feira (23/08), mas como Eidos Montreal/Square-Enix confiam na qualidade do jogo que tem em mãos, liberaram as reviews quatro dias antes.

Ars Technica - Buy this game
IGN - 92Verdict: Buy. Buy the heck out of this game.
The good:
The bad:
- New powers add welcome juice to what were already solid stealth and combat systems
- Dialogue is written as well as it's acted, with an abundance of side plots to make for a rich quest
- Elaborate city and mission environments strike a satisfying balance between "it feels real" and "it plays well as a game"
- An entire bonus game that nails the concept of "arcade" Deus Ex
The ugly:
- It's better-looking than an Xbox 360 game, but not much (unless you have a souped-up PC, which we tentatively recommend as the "ultimate" version of the game)
- AI can act remarkably stupid at times, which renders a couple of missions moot
- Geez, I dunno... it doesn't fold your laundry or make you a sandwich, I guess
Gaming Age - 91
It provided more of what I loved from Human Revolution, and certainly scratches a stealth-action itch that few games not called Metal Gear Solid fail to provide. I love the level of freedom granted to players with this series, and Mankind Divided capitalizes on that concept constantly.
GamesRadar+ - 4,5/5
An excellent sequel that expands your toolbox and offers complex, multifaceted environments to explore.
God is a Geek - 90
A solid sequel that comes close to but never quite surpasses its exceptional predecessor, Mankind Divided is nonetheless an essential purchase for fans of stealth and story.
PlayStation Lifestile - 90
Once again, Eidos Montreal has created an engrossing, intense adventure that even FPS haters need to check out. Serious subject matter is explored; answers are not always cut-and-dry, much like in real life. There is also the occasional dose of humor, to break some of the tension. While combat can still be awkward from time to time, there are so many options at your disposal that such a minor issue can be overcome with relative ease thanks to the numerous choices at your disposal. This is a game you’ll want to play multiple times, to see how things could play out if you play a certain way, and its save system encourages experimentation. Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is this summer’s must-play game.
PlayStation Universe - 90
Mankind Divided is a thoroughly satisfying Action RPG that understands how to make stealth play enjoyable, flexible and challenging. The design of its near-future world is remarkable, and the stories held within it are compelling. The only sour taste here is an ending at odds, and the slightest whiff of over-familiarity.
The SixthAxis - 90
EDGE - 9 (sem link ainda)Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is captivating from start to finish, giving players more freedom to make their own choices. Controls are sublime, whether you’re massacring the enemy or avoiding them; with enough tools to make both viable options. The take on a futuristic Prague is unsettling, yet hugely immersive, together with some interesting social commentary. It’s been a long time coming, but Mankind Divided was worth the five year wait.
PC Gamer - 88
A beautiful, smartly designed game set in a gorgeous futuristic city, but with a story that doesn’t quite do it justice.
Xbox Achievements - 88
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is an impressive sequel to the brilliant Human Revolution. In the grand scheme of things, there are very few monumental changes, but if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it, right? And everything that was broken in Human Revolution? It’s all fixed. Held back from true greatness by the odd grumble here and there, Mankind Divided is worthy of anyone’s time and money.
Polygon - 85
Mankind Divided's cybernetic playground feels fresh, even if it doesn't go as far as expected
Gaming Trend - 85
I imagine the Internet will be abuzz with discussion on the “Mechanical Apartheid” issue, debating whether it was offensive, or if Eidos Montreal did enough to warrant the comparison, but aside from that, there is a very solid effort here. The new augments combined with better level design makes exploration more satisfying, and the little upgrades to hacking make that whole system more tense. While it’s over a little too soon, if you enjoyed Human Revolution, there is a lot to like here.
Destructoid - 80
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided doesn't succeed in making me care about the plight of humans and augs, but it still pulled me into its compelling cloak-and-dagger world where people in capes can turn invisible and shoot balls of lightning out of their arm. Oh, and your aug doctor looks just like Prince, so it's in the running for GOTY.
Forbes - 80
If you’re a fan of the first game, I certainly recommend this one as well. But in a competitive season, it’s hard to see Mankind Divided being as impactful or memorable as Deus Ex’s reassurance five years ago.
GameSpot - 80
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided refines and reinforces the defining foundations of the series. It creates challenging situations and gives players the tools and flexibility to deal with them in a multitude of ways, all within an absorbing cyberpunk world. Although not a significant departure from Human Revolution, Mankind Divided is still a uniquely fulfilling experience, one which feels rare in games today.
Giant Bomb - 80
Adam Jensen's return is largely successful, even if the conspiracy surrounding him could've been a little more engaging.
IGN Alemanha - 80
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is better in ever aspect than Human Revolution, besides the disappointing main story.
+ Muita liberdade
+ Mecânicas de jogo melhoradas
+ Side quests emocionantes
+ Breach Mode
- História principal decepcionante
Push Square - 70
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is an intricate, intelligent journey through a well crafted cyberpunk world. Eidos Montreal's creation tries its hand at many things, offering an impressive amount of player choice, but it struggles to excel in any one particular area. As a result, we're left with a game that's solid when taken as a whole, but flawed when analysed piece by piece. Still, a great art style, a compelling plot, and a rewarding sense of progression do a lot to bolster the experience, ultimately contributing to a successful sequel.
Videogamer - 70
Mankind Divided hasn't lost the soul of a Deus Ex game, but it doesn't hit the heights it's reaching for.
Hardcore Gamer - 3/5
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is the epitome of the phrase, one step forward, two steps back.
Eurogamer - Recomendado
Deus Ex's mix of shooting and stealth continues to flourish under Eidos Montreal, though the story isn't a match for the setting.
Rock, Paper, Shotgun - sem nota ainda
Mankind Divided is a new version of one of my favourite games of all time and free from the execution problems that hampered that last iteration. The levels are bigger and prettier. There are no dumb boss fights. It gives you slightly more agency over its story. The new abilities are nice, even if they don’t dramatically alter the flow of the game.
