Leaked Screenshots Show Deus Ex: Mankind Divided

New images have surfaced for the next entry in the popular game series Deus Ex. The series focuses on a not-to-distant future where human augmentation has become a reality, and is commonplace.

As the leaked title suggests, however, mankind is indeed divided over the issue, and riots and revolution ensue. 

The previous entry, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, showed the beginnings of a Civil War between the conservative anti-augmentation groups, and large pro-augmentation corporations. Without spoiling the game, there are some heavy themes regarding humanity and technology through out the game and it seems as though these themes will persist into this next entry.

The title, "Mankind Divided," definitely suggests that a civil war of sorts must be in full swings, and now potentially rogue agent is caught in the middle.

The leaked screenshots definitely confirm that Adam Jensen, the protagonist from Human Revolution, will be returning in some capacity ( I suspect as the main protagonist once again), as well as the traditional first-person shooter, third-person cover play style.

A screenshot of gun modifications suggests that the game is updating its previous weapon detail screen for something closer to Crysis. If this truly is a Crysis clone of gun-modding, then players can expect to be able to examine and modify guns on the go for quick and easy combat. 

As usual the screenshots look amazing and incredibly above par. It is, however, unusual for a final product to look as good initial screens and demos. I am still excited for the game even if it doesn't meet the graphic capacity of the screenshots. 

The game will be made by Square Enix and Eidos Montreal, however there is no confirmation for which consoles it will be released, or a potential release window.
