Deus Ex: Human Revolution is a cyberpunk action-adventure video game.
You play Adam Jensen, an ex-SWAT specialist who’s been handpicked to oversee the defensive needs of one of America’s most experimental biotechnology firms.
Your job is to safeguard company secrets, but when a black ops team breaks in and kills the very scientists you were hired to protect, everything you thought you knew about your job changes.
A divided near-future: discover a time of great technological advancement, but also a time of chaos and conspiracy.
Mechanical augmentations of the human body have divided society between those who can afford them, and those who can’t.
Opposing forces conspire from the shadow to control the destiny of mankind: a human revolution is coming.
A perfect mix of action and role-play: the game uniquely combines action-packed close-quarters take-downs with intense shooting, offering a vast array of character augmentations and upgrades for the many weapons at your disposal.
Unlock new abilities and increase your stealth, social, hacking or combat skills: the game rewards all styles of play and approaches.
Determine how you want your character to evolve, based on how you want to play the game.
Choices and consequences: shoot your way through the enemies, sneak up behind them without being traced, hack systems to retrieve crucial information, or use your social skills to extract information from key characters – there are always choices, multiple approaches, multiple paths and multiple tools at your disposal.
Choose your playing style and face the consequences of your actions: you decide how the story unfolds.

AUTHOR’S NOTES
I worked as a member of the core writing team on Deus Ex: Human Revolution from 2008 until the game’s launch in 2011, developing the main narrative path and writing backstory and lore elements for much of the Deus Ex gameworld. I also worked on the Missing Link downloadable content, and a number of other Deus Ex projects, including the mobile game The Fall, the novellas Fallen Angel and Hard Line (both available for free download on this site), the original novels Icarus Effect and Black Light, and Mankind Divided, the 2016 sequel to Human Revolution.
I was very proud to be nominated with Mary DeMarle and Jean-François Dugas for the 2012 BAFTA Video Games Awards Story category, and to be a co-winner of the 2012 Canadian Videogames Award for Best Writing.
