Women in Human Revolution had a strictly 'social' role, Proulx explains. 'They had some social functions in the game world, but actually going into stealth and playing against them in combat, you didn't see that,' he says. There were of course women in the previous game, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, but they were largely removed from battles, producer Olivier Proulx tells Engadget at E3. Among the upgraded abilities, new weapons and winding metal passageways in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, there's one important, yet subtle, change to the series: women in combat roles.
