Live Action Deus Ex: Mankind Divided Trailer Pushes Sci-fi Buttons With The Mechanical Apartheid
Dues Ex: Mankind Divided is a series that has taken on some big questions in its time. The games ask questions about being human, augmentation and racism, which are topics we will most certainly be talking about in the coming decades.
