What it is
Deus Ex: Invisible War is a single-player action game from Ion Storm, set about 20 years after Deus Ex. The world is starting to recover from a catastrophic worldwide depression, while religious and political factions maneuver to shape its future. You play through that conflict across locations including Seattle, Antarctica and Cairo. Biotech modifications let you see through walls, jump great distances, regenerate critical damage or become invisible to radar. Stealth depends on darkness and sound as enemies react to their surroundings. Missions allow different approaches, including non-lethal resolutions, and the story responds with branching plot developments. The game is classified as a cyberpunk immersive sim and action role-playing game, with stealth elements. Its listed features include full controller support and support for DualShock and DualSense controllers. It is available for Windows and includes single-player play and Family Sharing.
