We’re just over a week away from the release of the next iteraton of the Deus Ex videogame franchise on August 23rd, and I’ve been very proud to be a part of the writing team behind Deus Ex: Mankind Divided! But working on the story and script for the game hasn’t been my only contribution to the world of this conspiracy-laden cyberpunk future – the 23rd will also see the release of Deus Ex: Black Light, a prequel novel that fills in some of the missing time between the end of the previous game Human Revolution and the start of Mankind Divided.
But that’s not all: I’ve also authored the new original eBook novella Deus Ex: Hard Line (featuring the backstory of the character Alex Vega) which will be available as part of the Collector’s Edition and Day One Edition releases of DXMD.
I love this moody, noir-inspired cover for Hard Line by Nicolas Lizotte, one of the senior concept artists at Eidos Montreal! You can see more of Nicolas’s work Here at his online portfolio.
