Would you believe it, the original Deus Ex — the stone cold classic RPG from 2000 — is getting a full-blown remaster on PS5 next year.
Out on the 5th February 2025, the predictably named Deus Ex Remastered is the same cyberpunk adventure that’s been influencing choice-driven design for decades, but it’s been given a graphical upgrade and overhauled controls.
Well, we say graphical upgrade, but we can already tell that some fans of the original game are going to be severely disappointed in how this remaster looks. It’s a pretty basic update, all things considered, but here’s hoping that the gameplay tweaks are enough to carry the experience.
Indeed, Deus Ex can be a struggle to play through these days; its RPG elements remain incredibly strong, but its moment-to-moment gameplay has aged rather poorly — especially by today’s standards.
But what do you make of Deus Ex Remastered? Hurry up and hack something in the comments section below.
