This product is like new. At NexWave Games, like new means:
Additionally, all discs at NexWave Games are carefully inspected and assessed for quality. When discs arrive, we do not accept any that are so badly damaged that they are unlikely to work. We only accept discs with light scratches at most. Discs with scratches are then treated in our professional disc repair machine. By warming the disc and polishing it with soft brushes, these machines can remove a very thin layer from the disc. This removes the layer containing surface scratches and improves the disc’s readability. This ensures the disc works properly, even on consoles with ageing lasers that have difficulty reading games! Great news for the player.
Deus Ex: Human Revolution for PlayStation 3
Deus Ex: Human Revolution for PlayStation 3 is an action RPG combining shooting, stealth, hacking and conversation. You play Adam Jensen, a security specialist at a biotechnology company. Following a violent attack, he receives mechanical augmentations and investigates those responsible. Set in 2027, the story explores a society divided by such procedures. Personal interests, corporations and political movements become increasingly intertwined as you uncover information.
A guarded entrance is often just one option. You can look for a vent, hack a computer or talk to someone to progress. Augmentations determine available routes and tools, such as lifting heavier objects or improving hacking. You also manage ammunition, energy and inventory space. The view is usually first-person, but cover and certain actions show Jensen from outside.
The single-player campaign lets you gather information patiently or resort to violence sooner. Not every confrontation can be avoided: this original version includes compulsory boss battles. The offered Benelux Edition is not the Director’s Cut. Later boss changes and the integrated Missing Link expansion therefore do not automatically belong to this edition. Original promotional codes and other separate extras are not promised as usable or included.
Region and language
Our PlayStation 3 games are European editions and come with a Dutch or English box, unless stated otherwise. By default, you receive the version for the European market. We note it in the product details if the region is different or the box is in another language. In almost all cases, the game is playable at least in English, and often in the other five common European languages too.
Manual
Deus Ex: Human Revolution for PlayStation 3 includes the manual unless the product title states otherwise. If the booklet is missing, the title says “No Manual”. This lets you see before ordering whether the game comes with a manual.
The manuals included with our games usually contain at least English and often around six European languages. The exact languages vary by edition, so Dutch is not always included. The booklet explains the controls and the main rules. You can use it to check how to control the game, which actions are available and how its different features work.
The history of Deus Ex: Human Revolution
Eidos-Montréal developed Deus Ex: Human Revolution, released by Square Enix in 2011 on platforms including PlayStation 3. As a prequel to earlier Deus Ex stories, it showed society before their more advanced future. Adam Jensen received his own background and investigation. New players could therefore begin with his story, while returning players recognised connections to the series’ broader world.
The team retained multiple solutions, conversations and upgrades but wanted direct combat to feel different. Cover, weapon selection and positioning became more important than in the older stat-driven gunfights. Black-and-gold visuals reflected progress and human enhancement. Clothing and buildings incorporated Renaissance influences, connecting the debate around technology to the characters’ everyday surroundings.
The Missing Link appeared after the original release as a separate story. The 2013 Director’s Cut integrated it into the campaign and revised elements including boss encounters. These are specific edition differences, not features shared by every Human Revolution disc. Mankind Divided followed in 2016 for a newer console generation. This PS3 Benelux release preserves the original adventure that introduced Jensen’s investigation and the conflict over mechanical augmentations.
Similar games for PlayStation 3
Dishonored on PlayStation 3 also offers several routes past guards and lets you choose how much violence to use. Supernatural powers take the place of mechanical augmentations there. Human Revolution gives more space to conversations, hacking and inventory management. Dishonored focuses its freedom more on movement and approaches to individual targets.
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots combines stealth, technology and a story about power on PlayStation 3. Snake uses camouflage and military tools across defined chapters. Human Revolution lets you choose lasting upgrades and more often offers different entrances or dialogue paths. Gathering information also matters beyond combat areas here.
Fallout: New Vegas also lets skills and conversation influence missions on PlayStation 3. The Mojave is a broader open world with many factions and lengthy detours. Human Revolution uses more compact urban hubs and guarded facilities. Its mechanical augmentations mainly open specific routes, computers and tactics within Jensen’s more clearly defined investigation.
Mass Effect 2 also combines conversation, science fiction and skill upgrades on PlayStation 3. You lead a squad and command teammates during combat there. Human Revolution usually has Jensen working alone, with buildings containing several stealth routes. The emphasis shifts from squad selection and group powers to personal tools and reading a location.
BioShock on PlayStation 3 also examines a society transformed by bodily enhancement. Rapture tells much through scenery and recordings, punctuated by firefights. Human Revolution adds more extensive conversations, hacking and social choices. You develop Jensen for particular approaches, while BioShock centres more on weapons, plasmids and how battles are arranged.
