Deus Ex: Human Revolution Pre-Order DLC And LE Set Announced

If Daidalos pre-purchased his wax and got that strength bonus, we'd be telling a whole different story about Íkaros' flight.

In Deus Ex: Human Revolution, you'll unravel a global conspiracy and presumably rub against that techno future's grain. A special 10-extra-dollar Limited Edition version of the game has been revealed for those interested in dropping a wee bit of extra coin for the usual array of exclusives. Also, special pre-order bonus DLC packs have been announced for those who may want to go the extra mile and reserve their copies through the brick-and-mortar equivalents of The Man.

Let's talk about the LE pack first, lovingly dubbed the "Augmented Edition." In the set, you'll get a 40-page art book, a "Making Of" DVD that also includes the game's soundtrack and "special trailers," premium packaging, and a motion graphic novel. 

This edition, pictured just below, will be sold on release day for $59.99 on PC and $69.99 on consoles.

== TEASER ==As for the pre-order DLC? GameStop's exclusive is the "Explosive Mission Pack," a bit of content that features a new mission with a "special cameo appearance of an original Deus Ex character." It'll also give you the Linebacker G-87 multiple shot grenade launcher, the M-28 Utility Remote-Detonated Explosive Device, and something called the Automatic Unlocking Device.
 
   
  

Other participating retailers will be offering the "Tactical Enhancement Pack," which offers extra in-game cash (credits), the Longsword Whisperhead Extreme Range Sniper Rifle, and the Huntsman Silverback Double-Barrel Shotgun. 
 
  
   

Deus Ex: Human Revolution is due out on the PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 in "early 2011." GameStop suggests that the release date is, specifically, March 8, 2011.
