Deus Ex: Human Revolution Launch Trailer Marks North American Release

Deus Ex: Human Revolution hit stores in North America today. The action RPG is available for the PS3, Xbox 360, PC or OnLive.

"With the release of Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Eidos-Montreal has reached a huge milestone in the development and delivery of our first game," said Stephane D'Astous, Eidos Montreal general manager. "We could not be more proud of DEUS EX: HUMAN REVOLUTION and are incredibly excited for gamers to finally be able to experience this captivating story and unique, unparalleled gameplay."

Human Revolution serves as a prequel to the first two Deus Ex games. Adam Jensen, a security guard, is badly wounded in an attack on his company. He's given cybernetic augments in order to save his life and soon finds himself caught up in a global conspiracy.

The Deus Ex series' signature feature is its open-ended gameplay. Players can use a variety of equipment and augmentations to complete objectives in different ways. For example, you can charge into an enemy base with your guns blazing, sneak in through a window with your cloaking device, or hack the lock on a side door.

The game is available in Standard and Augmented Editions. The Augmented Edition costs $10 more but comes with the following extras:

  • 40-page Artbook
  • Exclusive Bonus DVD: Making Of, Special Trailers, Animated storyboard of CGI trailer and Soundtrack
  • Premium Packaging
  • Motion Graphic Novel

To make one final case for the game, Eidos Montreal sent out a launch trailer. Check it out below.
