  It’s a well-designed level, but doesn’t bring anything new to the table. If you were burned out after finishing Mankind Divided, this may feel too much like retreading old ground. But your augs being reset at the beginning does at least give you a chance to experiment with a different play style this time around. The Blade is a well-designed playground for Jensen’s augs, but System Rift is, overall, not quite as good as anything in the main game.

  Mankind Divided’s first DLC story is divided between a stellar narrative and a disjointed gameplay experience. It’s just not fun to be running away from turrets or being spotted by the dozens of cameras because you simply aren’t given enough tools from the get-go to deal with them, or opportunities to get enough skill points to actually do some damage.

  System Rift is a short but sweet experience. Mankind Divided itself wasn’t incredibly lengthy, but when you take into consideration the last piece of post-release DLC we received in the Deus Ex universe, The Missing Link, this is far less appealing. The core content will run roughly two hours in length, with exploring every room and area extending the playtime by another hour. Fortunately, the general setup is well done.

  System Rift does an admirable job of tying Breach mode into the main story while starting to fill in the gaps between Human Revolution and Mankind Divided, but it doesn't feel complete unto itself. You’ll get two to four hours more of excellent Deus Ex gameplay, and a glimpse of what the future may hold, but not much more, which is just a bit of a tease.

  In all honesty, it doesn’t bring enough new stuff to the main game -- in fact it brings nothing to it, being a standalone entity -- nor does it last long enough to be a must buy. It’s good fun, challenging and interesting, but if you didn’t like the main game there’s nothing here to change your mind.

  Creo que si disfrutaste de Mankind Divided, sobra decirte que no te puedes perder de System Rift, pues básicamente nos regala más horas de este fantástico título que debería de estar en todas las listas de lo mejor de 2016. En caso de que estés esperando que este DLC de historia cambie la forma en la que se juega esta franquicia, lamento decirte que dista completamente de esto, pues sabe que antes que nada, debe de atender a quienes disfrutamos de cómo es que se consumen las obras de Eidos Montreal.
