We’re happy to announce the first Alternate Music Pack for Deus Ex: Revision. This pack contains two alternate versions of tracks from the Revision OST:

• Beginnings and Endings: Intro Cinematic
• Crumble to Dust: DuClare Chateau

This installer is compatible with all versions of Deus Ex: Revision. Version 1.2 is highly recommended.

We’re thrilled to announce the official Good Old Games release of Deus Ex: Revision, as DLC for Deus Ex: Game of the Year! This release includes all of the updates we’ve made since our original launch on Steam in October 2015, including a full set of achievements for players using the GoG Galaxy client. It should now be available for everyone who owns Deus Ex: GOTY in their Good Old Games library. To celebrate the launch, Deus Ex: Game of the Year Edition is 75% off at GOG.com!

Today also marks the release of version 1.2 STATEROOM for both the GOG and Steam editions. v1.2 STATEROOM features over 200 fixes and changes, with a focus on improving AI reactivity and addressing general ’fit and finish’ issues, both in-game and under-the-hood. It also adds 13 new gameplay modifiers for a total of 36, so you can squeeze, twist, and contort Deus Ex into offering the challenge you want. Check out the complete list of changes over here.

Until next time!

We’re happy to finally be able to say that an official GOG release of DX:Revision is in the works and moving towards a real, actual, genuine thing. We’re not close enough to this release to give specifics just yet, but it is coming, and we’re expecting it to finish coming together in the new year after everyone is back in their respective offices, recovering from the holidays.

In the meantime, those of us at Caustic Creative wish everyone warm, comfortable holidays and a happy new year!

Hello!

We’re looking for a programmer to help sort out a tool that will help us improve Deus Ex: Revision going forward. We want to have this person rewrite the original ConEdit, the tool which was used to create and modify conversation dialogues in Deus Ex. The original ConEdit doesn’t allow us to deal in a feasible way with localization and changing dialogues, so we’re looking for somebody to create a version which lets us do exactly that.

Intrigued? You won’t need any knowledge about the Unreal Engine, but you need to be able to understand basic C/C++ code. You can work in the programming language of your choice. If you are interested in creating a replacement ConEdit tool capable of managing changing dialogues and multiple languages, get in touch at [email protected].

Hello!

Today is the one-year anniversary for Deus Ex: Revision, and we’re marking the occasion with Update 1.1.1.

This anniversary update is headlined by the addition of six new pieces of boss fight music for Anna Navarre, Gunther Hermann, and Walton Simons. We’ve put all six tracks in a compilation video on YouTube as part of the OST playlist. We had a lot of fun working on these, and hope you all enjoy.

Additionally, we’re introducing Modifiers, small twists on the three gameplay modes (Normal, Shifter, BioMod). These Modifiers can be selected at the beginning of a new game, and provide different challenges ranging from the quirky to the downright punishing. We strongly recommend that players new to Revision or Deus Ex give these options a wide berth, and only try them out on second or third play-throughs.

Please note:

As a general reminder, when game content is updated in a patch, it cannot affect locations you have already visited in a saved game. This is because the saved game was created based on the older version of the game, and acts as a snapshot of that older version. Once you load a saved game and travel to a new location in the game world, you will begin to encounter the updated content. Got a bug you want fixed? Suggestion you want implemented?
