Deus Ex Mankind Divided Pre-Order Program Ditched

​

​

Square Enix has cancelled Deus Ex: Mankind Divided's controversial Augment Your Pre-Order program. All of the tiered rewards will now be available to everyone (apart from the early release bit).​

“At both Square Enix and Eidos Montreal, we’ve been listening to everything you’ve had to say about the Augment Your Pre-Order program,” reads the announcement. “When it was first conceived, we wanted the program to give you more choice about what you received in terms of pre-order incentives - because we’ve seen in the past that when we choose those packages ourselves, and split them across regions, it has caused frustration. We quickly noticed that this caused even more frustration than before, resulting in a resounding amount of negative feedback.​

“We spent a lot of time reading through all your comments, working to understand how we can try to make things right for you. After much thought and reflection, we decided to close down the program and make all of the incentive content available to anyone who pre-orders Deus Ex: Mankind Divided or purchases a Day 1 edition of the game. Additionally, the release date will no longer be changed in accordance with pre-order numbers, and everyone will gain access to the game on February 23rd, 2016.”​

The Deus Ex: Mankind Divided Augment Your Pre-Order program had a tiered incentives scheme that unlocked further rewards depending on how many people bought into it. The scheme was a bit convoluted, a tiny bit grubby and a lot of people got upset. Like, a lot.​

That’s why Square Enix and Eidos Montreal has ditched the idea.​
