Deus Ex: Mankind Divided’s soundtrack brings something old, something new

Square-Enix and Eidos today announced Michael McCann will return to compose music for Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. Moreover, Sascha Dikiciyan (aka Sonic Mayhem) will also contribute to the game’s soundtrack.

“It was important for us to build upon the strong foundation of Deus Ex: Human Revolution, but also to let it stand on its own. Along the way, we realized this game was much vaster than anticipated and we made the choice to add another composer to the team. Sascha Dikiciyan’s music stood out,” said Executive Audio Director Steve Szczepkowski.

“After talking with Sascha, it became clear that we shared the same vision and passion for what musically drives Deus Ex. Sascha’s influences mirror ours in many ways, yet he also brings a whole other set of influences to the table. Sascha is completely immersed in the musical feeling of Deus Ex; he’s a huge fan of the franchise, and that comes through loud and clear in his compositions. We can’t wait for people to hear the work that he’s done and we are all thrilled he’s now part of the Deus Ex family!”

Sumthing Else Music Works and Eidos will release the Deus Ex: Mankind Divided OST this spring, while Mankind Divided itself will be available from 23 August on PS4, Xbox One and Windows PC.
