[JF] Hi guys, here's JF, I'm the Executive Game Director on the Deus Ex franchise,
and today I'm with David Anfossi, which is the Executive Producer. And we have great news for you.
[DAVID] Hi guys, we've been working on something on something really cool, and been looking forward
to sharing it with you. For the last year we've been working with Square Enix Mobile to bring you
a completely new Deus Ex game. It's called Deus Ex: The Fall, coming to your IPhone and IPad.
This game is a completely new experience, a new story in the Deus Ex universe.
It's set in 2027, like Human Revolution, but you play as Ben Saxon,
a former British SAS mercenary who has been augmented.
He has been betrayed by his employers, The Tyrants, and is on a mission
to find out what happened to him.
[JF] And it's actually a sequel to the James Swallow's novel, Icarus Effect.
[DAVID] Yeah, exactly. The game picks up where the story ends, so,
if you had read the novel, you will recognize some familiar characters.
[JARON] You're a very good soldier, Ben.
[JF] Are you interested in see it in action? [DAVID] Yeah, sure.
[JF] Let's look at it.
[DAVID] So, it looks really good. [JF] It's very faithful,
and it looks like it's in the same universe as Human Revolution.
And now, I'm going to show a walkthrough here, to showcase a bit how it plays.
We're getting into enemy territory, and we're not welcome,
but hey! I will make myself welcome with a beautiful non-lethal takedown.
And now it's time for me to use my cloaking and try to run away.
We've also added the possibility of tapping on the screen and be able to move around,
making an easier experience, specially on a tablet.
We can also tap on the enemies, so that we can lock on them.
It was really important to us to make the game as simple to play as possible.
[VOICE] Access granted.
[JF] I can also reconfigure the icons on-screen and put them wherever I want,
so that for each player, it can be tailored to their own style.
We did a mix of the old augmentations that were on Human Revolution,
but we also have new augmentations, like the Active Armor, which you can activate
when you're shot at, to up your resistence and whatnot.
And we have good-old useful augmentations like the Smart Vision, that allows you to see through walls.
And the Punch through Wall, right?
[DAVID] A classic. [JF] Yeah, classic.
So as you can see, we've fully retained the Deus Ex experience with this new mobile offer,
Deus Ex: The Fall, but this time around we can bring it with us wherever we go,
which is pretty cool, right?
[DAVID] Yeah, it's amazing. We really hope that you guys like it.
That's all we have time for today, I'm afraid, but look out for Deus Ex: The Fall release.
[JF] See you, guys. [DAVID] Bye-bye!
