A sequel to the first "Deus Ex: Human Revolution" reboot, the story of "Deus Ex: Mankind Divided" puts Adam Jensen in the chaotic wake of the Aug Incident, when augmented citizens around the world suddenly lost control over their minds and enhanced bodies.
"Batman: The Telltale Series" puts players behind the cape and mask of Batman, as well as the double life he leads as Bruce Wayne. It's a game based on decisions, and each one will have its impact felt throughout the well-crafted story by Telltale, as Gamespot notes.
"That's You," a party game for the PlayStation 4, is available for free only in Europe, while the PlayStation 4 and PS Vita versions of "Uncanny Valley" are available for free, as well.
