Today Eidos-Montreal head of studio David Anfossi announced Deus Ex: Mankind’s delay on its official website. He notes the studio is aiming for the latest game in the iconic series to be a worthy successor of Human Revolution, which it aims to not only meet those expectations, but to exceed them.
“We’re confident and proud of the game so far,” Anfossi writes. “However, as we are now playing through the game in full we can see that it will require more time in post-production for tuning, iterations, and refinement to meet our high standards. In order to achieve this, we need to move the release of the game to August 23rd, 2016.”
The launch of Deus Ex: Mankind Divided was due on the 23rd February, 2016, the game’s release date has now been pushed back by six months to 23rd August, 2016 for the PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
