Deux Ex: Mankind has justified why it has made numerous improvements than its previous forerunners. This version takes its players into an intense environment with a serious battle between man and machine.The game has a quick tutorial that gives a step-by-step instruction on the first game's mechanics. This teaches the players hacking skills, stealthing, and fighting that are needed for the game. There is also a brief tutorial about the mechanics of the game. This RPG game was launched two years after the last game of the series concluded.

According to Game Rant, players should enter Prague as Adam Jensen, an Interpol agent, after completing the missions in the prologue. Because of the role-playing elements of Mankind Divided, players have the capacity to restart the hero's skills and abilities from the beginning. It is rewarding for the player to play as Jensen, especially if the agent is already powered up. Jensen has the ability to be invisible, especially if he is sneaking by the guards.

According to IGN, he can also perform high-powered takedown while encompassing alarms. By this, he seems like the superhero that everyone admires. Because of the augmentation of Jensen's former armors, the player feels dignified during gameplay. Similar to other RPGs, the player still has to take care of the inventory of his armors, ammunitions and its parts, and his medicine so that he could go on at full speed playing the game.

This game is indeed worth the wait because the player has a choice to choose between good or evil. Players are also allowed to change their decisions based on what they want for their world to become. Every action of the player within the game has always its own consequences. As much as possible, players can peacefully move throughout the game however they want.
