If you’re familiar with the world of Deus Ex then you already know that there are multiple ways to approach a mission. Using lethal and non-lethal play styles require patience and precision to achieve the best results. As an added bonus, equipping the right weaponry is vital to your overall survival and effectiveness against adversaries in the long run. These are two very specific areas that the guide provides valuable insight on and will certainly entice those who are completionists aiming to get either a platinum trophy or all of the achievements that the game has to offer.

Another advantage to having the guide lies within the augmentations and complete area map descriptions. Choosing the right weapons and augmentations can give the player a better understanding of which combat, stealth and hacking techniques to use in certain situations. Likewise, knowing the ins and outs of a certain level can reveal where collectible items and the best tactical vantage points are. Of course, anyone can choose to explore these aspects about the game on their own, but the guide will definitely help those who are serious about covering every surface and feature in the title. Below are some additional screenshots and images taken directly from the guide.

The Deus Ex: Mankind Divided Limited Edition Guide is definitely worth buying if you’re a fan of the series or need help covering all aspects of the game. Exploring different play styles and augmentations is only a small portion of the insane amount of value you’ll get from a package like this.
