This exciting release serves as a prequel to the critically acclaimed Deus Ex: Human Revolution, providing fans with a deeper dive into the rich lore and complex narrative of the Deus Ex universe.
The new Deus Ex: The Fall iOS game has been created by Square Enix and has already garnered significant attention and praise within the gaming community. Impressively, it won seven “Best Mobile/iOS Game” awards at E3 2013, highlighting its quality and the anticipation surrounding its release. Watch the E3 trailer after the jump to see it in action.
Game Setting and Character
Deus Ex: The Fall is set in the year 2027, a time of great technological advancement and societal upheaval, similar to the setting of Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Players will step into the shoes of a new character, Ben Saxon, an augmented former British SAS mercenary. Saxon’s journey is fraught with danger and intrigue as he navigates a world where human augmentation is both a boon and a curse. The game’s narrative explores themes of power, control, and the ethical implications of human augmentation, providing a thought-provoking experience for players.
The game is designed to offer around 6 hours of gameplay, which is substantial for a mobile title. This length ensures that players will have ample time to immerse themselves in the story and explore the game’s mechanics without feeling rushed. The developers have also promised a rich, detailed world filled with secrets and side missions that will keep players engaged beyond the main storyline.
Gameplay and Features
Deus Ex: The Fall brings the series’ signature blend of action, stealth, and role-playing elements to the mobile platform. Players can expect a variety of gameplay options, allowing them to approach situations in multiple ways, whether through combat, hacking, or stealth. This flexibility is a hallmark of the Deus Ex series and ensures that each player’s experience can be unique.
The game also features a robust upgrade system, where players can enhance Ben Saxon’s augmentations to suit their playstyle. Whether you prefer to be a silent assassin or a heavily armed warrior, the game provides the tools to tailor your character to your preferences. Additionally, the touch controls have been optimized for iOS devices, ensuring a smooth and intuitive gameplay experience.
When Deus Ex: The Fall launches on iOS devices later this week, it will be priced at $6.99, £4.99, and 5.99€. This pricing is quite reasonable considering the depth and quality of the game, making it an attractive option for both long-time fans of the series and newcomers alike. Enjoy!
