One of the biggest surprises to come out of Wednesday’s PlayStation State of Play presentation was the announcement that the classic **Deus Ex** series is getting a remaster for new audiences.
“Deus Ex has always been about freedom,” said Aspyr Associate Brand Manager Matthew Ray on PlayStation.Blog. “When the original title first launched, it redefined what a video game could be, melding RPG elements, action and stealth gameplay, and branching player choices into a cyberpunk immersive sim like nobody else had ever tried. Storm through the front door, hack the security grid, slip past enemies with invisibility cloaks, or talk your way through impossible odds. Every mission, every level, and every outcome adapts to your choices.”
Ray went on to highlight what’s new with **Deus Ex Remastered**. The game will feature enhanced lighting, shadows, particle effects, and upscaled textures. Additionally, all character models have been revamped for modern hardware, delivering freshly rendered visuals and lip-synced dialogue for a more immersive experience.
Aspyr is also drawing inspiration from *Eidos Montreal’s* *Deus Ex: Human Revolution* and *Deus Ex: Mankind Divided* to revamp the original game’s controls, making them feel more intuitive and fluid on consoles.
So far, **Deus Ex Remastered** is confirmed exclusively for PlayStation 5, with a release date set for **February 5, 2026**. Fans of the series can look forward to a fresh way to experience the groundbreaking classic on modern hardware.
