Square Enix and Eidos-Montréal announced that Deus Ex: Mankind Divided will be launching globally on February 23, 2016 for the Xbox One, PS4, and Windows PC. Square Enix also announced the introduction of an “Augment Your Pre-Order” campaign, no doubt with the intent of trying to drive that pre-order number up.
The “Augment Your Pre-Order” campaign will unlock more tiers with different bonuses as more copies of the game are pre-ordered ahead of launch. There are a total of 5 tiers and if the fifth and final one is reached, the game will release 4 days early. The campaign will also allow players to choose their rewards at each tier level.
TIER 1 – ONE ITEM PER PRE-ORDER (UNLOCKED FOR EVERYONE ON AUG. 31)
