3D Realms has announced a first-person action-adventure game that is heavily inspired by the classic immersive sims of the ‘90s, Core Decay. Core Decay will explore the nature of consciousness and individuality, and will release on the PC in 2021.
Core Decay promises to feature multiple ways via which you can complete an objective. You can go all out with guns blazing, or find creative solutions to reach your goals. Players can explore alternate routes, hack computers and security systems, discover lost logs, keycodes and passwords, and use every tool at their disposal to reach their objectives.
Furthermore, players can upgrade themselves with over 100 game-changing cybernetic implants. Additionally, the game will over you a diverse arsenal weapons and other combat equipment.
Basically, Core Decay is a new Deus Ex. Now I don’t know whether its story, music and atmosphere will be just as good. However, its gameplay mechanics are similar to those of Deus Ex.
Enjoy the following trailer and stay tuned for more!

I don’t like the graphical style. It’s like those fake 8bit indie games, but in 3D. The visuals are cartoony instead of being gritty.
man, i think were going through a retro FPS renaissance
I woudn’t even say this game is “inspired”, more like a rip-off, and not even a ripoff of the good kind. Not impressed with the trailer, hope it can show more things in the future.
Oh WOW, this one looks awesome!
Speaking of DEUS EX, which one is the best in this entire franchise ? Don’t post spoilers though, since I haven’t player a single Deus Ex game till this date.
So which one is worth buying/playing? I presume Invisible War ?? ? ?
Deus Ex (2000), Deus Ex: Invisible War (2003), Deus Ex: Human Revolution (2011), Deus Ex: The Fall (2013), or Deus Ex: Mankind Divided (2016). ?
Assuming you aren’t trolling with your Invisible War presumption the original is the best followed by Human Revolution and Mankind Divided. Mankind Divided is unfinished though. The original is difficult to get into and could be frustrating but it’s so rewarding and the soundtrack is better than any other game I’ve played.
I’m not trolling, why will I ? That was a genuine/serious question, and I did read somewhere that Invisible War is very good, but it appears my assumption was wrong. lol
So, according to you, Deus Ex (2000) > Human Revolution > Mankind Divided. By “unfinished” you mean to say the story is not yet complete, and the Game is going to get a sequel, or the story didn’t end properly ?
its not gonna get a sequel, franchise is put on hold.
Mankind Divided ends about halfway through just when you think the main story is going to gather speed but it ends abruptly. Square Enix who basically hold Eidos Montreal captive made a stupid choice to cut the game in two and riddle the single-player game with progression microtransactions – you literally buy kits necessary to by new augments.
And now Eidos is one of the companies taking part in creating the cash-grab Avengers game along with Crystal Dynamics.
The last tidbit of info I read stated that the new Deus Ex game will not feature the protagonist from Human Revolution and Mankind Divided without conclusion.
That was helpful. Thanks ~!
I think you should play the original first just to understand how the series started. If you were to play the two newer games first, you might have difficulty going back and playing the older games.
Play the mobile game first Deus Ex the Fall, people say it is the best in the series…
I don’t play Mobile games though.
It was ported to PC later.
Okay, thanks for the info.
The original is by far the best game of the bunch. Don’t touch Invisible War.
Invisible War is good, not as good as the original but still nice to play.
Btw, why is Invisible War that bad as a Deus Ex title ?
Deus Ex (2000) is the best one, as for Human Revolution and Mankind Divided they both have the same level of quality if you like HR then you will like MD.
chronologically its human revolution and mankind divided sadly the game is on hold due to bad sales and jim sterling. Then you got the original deus ex which is the best. They had to remove the entire section of india from human revolution because they couldnt fit it on the disk and the missing link dlc was suppose to be part of the game in the directors cut they added it. The original deus ex there is so much more content in it, but getting into the game can be hard. You have a pistol with six shots and you have to stand still for a like 5 seconds to accurate fire a shot. Your best course of action is to go for stealth takedowns with the prod which requires waiting to aim to or the batton. The tranqulizer darts alert the guards. Then you go the health system medkits barely heal and you have to rely on food items and water fountains to recover some extra health. You should play it with the give me deus ex mod, (GMDX) from the get go it adds alot of modern stuff like shortcuts, weapon mods like silencer and scopes on the weapon.
Also might worth playing system shock 2 since its similar.
Oh and look up the deus ex redpill video, it predicted everything.
if you gonna play invisible war, well, get the mod that connects the hubs into one level, they had to make levels small due to console…then prepare to pick up corpses and toss them to pick up universal ammo afterwards.
Cool. Let me check it out.
“chronologically its human revolution and mankind divided sadly the game is on hold due to bad sales and jim sterling.”
What did Jim Sterling did this time?
By the way, after all this time, Deus Ex: Invisible War is really worthy, story and universe wise…You can play first two games from almighty Warren Spector & Harvey Smith, they are really great
The first one is still the best and there’s lots of mods for it, ranging from stuff that enhances the original game (GMDX; Revision) to total conversions (The Nameless Mod; Nihilum; Project 2027; Zodiac).
Human Revolution is the second best; Mankind Divided the 3rd; Invisible War the 4th and while I never played The Fall, it’s safe to assume it’s a very distant 5th
Thanks m8
Tried the original back when it was released in 2000 on a friend’s PC but didn’t get very far. About 4 years ago I’ve completed both Human Revolution and Mankind Divided. The best things about them is the artistic direction and ambient tracks by Michael Mccann. The music really belongs to some big budget cyberpunk movie and the game mechanics sadly to me personally are not up to par with the score.
Yup, I heard the art style and the music are pretty immersive in the latest 2 games. I think there is no point in playing Mankind Divided though, since the story ends abruptly, so I might as well skip this title.
Mankind Divided deserves to be played, Nick. If for the music and art direction alone. You’ll certainly get about 40 hours of gameplay from it.
Alright then…no worries. I will surely give it a shot.. Thanks
looks meh, hellhunt looks better.
EDIT, wait, this is not the trailer i watched before, the one i saw on 3d realms did not feature most of the things here, it only showed the spider bot enemies and looked pretty generic, it had no mention of being like deus ex. Ok now i change my statement it looks pretty good.
I hope they release this soon ! Looks kinda cool.
