What is Deus Ex: Game of the Year Edition?

A first-person action RPG set in a dystopian 2052, where global instability provides cover for a conspiracy seeking control.

For you if...

  • +you enjoy story-heavy cyberpunk conspiracy settings
  • +you value multiple solutions through stealth, combat, or conversation

  • −you expect modern graphics and control conventions

What players say

94% of 14,919 reviews are positive · 89% of 89 in the last 30 days

Players most often praise the conspiracy story and the freedom to sneak, hack, fight, or talk through problems. The main complaint is compatibility with modern systems: some players report crashes, speed or display issues, dated controls, and needing community fixes.
