Deus Ex: The Fall is coming to Steam
Deus Ex: The Fall, the Deus Ex game now only available for iOS and Android, is coming to Steam. The game’s story is set before that of Deus Ex: Human Revolution and directly follows the events of the book, Icarus Effect.
The news was discovered by Neogaf member ColonelColon, after which gaming website Joystiq confirmed it. The Steam version of the game will receive trading cards and achievements. The game’s content has also been tinkered with; the AI has been improved, the tutorial has been adjusted, controller support has been added and the cover system has been changed to that of Deus Ex: Human Revolution. The microtransactions have also been removed from the game and the in-game economy has been adjusted accordingly.
The story is very similar to that of other Deus Ex games. Secret organizations, augmentations and secret motives are all discussed. Deus Ex: The Fall for iOS and Android was not particularly well received. For example, Eurogamer gave the game a 5. Complaints were mainly made about the lack of depth in the game. The iOS version of the game was released in July 2013 and the Android version in January 2014. The Steam version will be released on March 25 and will cost $9.99. Those who pre-order the game on Steam will receive the original Deus Ex: Game of the Year Edition for free.
