Deus Ex: Mankind Divided
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided launched earlier this month on August 23rd and is available to play on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC systems. This game is the latest installment in the critically acclaimed Deus Ex series, known for its deep narrative and complex gameplay mechanics.
The year is 2029, and mechanically augmented humans have now been deemed outcasts, living a life of complete and total segregation from the rest of society.
Now an experienced covert operative, Adam Jensen is forced to operate in a world that has grown to despise his kind. Armed with a new arsenal of state-of-the-art weapons and augmentations, he must choose the right approach, along with who to trust, in order to unravel a vast worldwide conspiracy.
The game delves into themes of transhumanism and societal division, making it not just an action-packed experience but also a thought-provoking one. Players must navigate a world filled with moral ambiguity, making choices that will affect the outcome of the story. The game’s developers, Eidos Montreal, have done an excellent job of creating a rich, immersive world that challenges players to think critically about the issues it presents.
Madden NFL 17
In addition to Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, this episode of This Week on Xbox also highlights Madden NFL 17. Madden NFL 17 continues the long-standing tradition of delivering a realistic and engaging football simulation experience. This year’s edition includes several new features and improvements that aim to enhance gameplay and provide a more authentic football experience.
