Deus Ex: Human Revolution DLC priced, dated

Deus Ex: Human Revolution, a game that critics have pegged at delivering 20-plus hours of gameplay, is set to get even more content on October 18. Coming in at $15 on the PC and PlayStation 3, and 1,200 Microsoft points on the Xbox 360, Missing Link is set to fill in a three-day gap in protagonist Adam Jensen's adventure.

POSSIBLE SPOILERS AHEAD

The Missing Link follows up on events that transpire during the full version of Deus Ex, in which Adam Jensen goes mysteriously AWOL for a three-day period. Square Enix describes this episode as a time when Jensen has lost his augmentation powers and must escape a freighter using only the abilities nature gave him.

The Missing Link introduces a handful of new characters and enemies that play into the game's storyline. Square Enix also played up the add-on's opportunity to rebuild Jensen's augmentations from scratch.
