Deus Ex: Human Revolution - Director's Cut

Game Overview

Deus Ex: Human Revolution - Director's Cut brings the definitive version of the cyberpunk masterpiece to the Nintendo Wii U with revamped boss fights, enhanced artificial intelligence, upgraded graphics, and deep integration of the Wii U GamePad screen. The story immerses players in a world divided by human augmentation technology, corporate espionage, and shadowy political cabals operating in cities like Detroit and Hengsha.

The gameplay centers on player freedom and choice across four primary playstyles: Combat, Stealth, Hacking, and Social Interaction. Players customize Adam Jensen using Praxis Points to unlock cybernetic augmentations—such as optical cloaking, wall-busting strength, silent steps, and hacking subroutines—tailoring his capabilities to match their preferred playstyle.

Designed as the ultimate console edition, the Wii U GamePad serves as Adam Jensen’s Neural Hub (Neural Interface). The touch screen acts as an interactive real-time radar map, letting players draw tactical routes, mark guards, hack security terminals, manage inventory, and view sniper scopes directly on the controller. Complete with integrated strategy guides, developer commentary, and the integrated "Missing Link" story expansion, it stands out as one of the most feature-rich experiences on the Wii U.
