Square Enix Has Cancelled The “Augment Your Pre-order” Due To Backlash

Last month, Square Enix announced the pre-order scheme that was tied to Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. It wasn’t a hit. It included a tiered system that had the incentive of releasing four days early if enough fans ended up pre-ordering.

With an announcement released earlier today, Square Enix admitted that fan input and frustration was cited as the decision to can the system. Deus Ex will launch on February 23.
