Patch adds in-game adverts to Deus Ex: Human Revolution

Posted on Tuesday, September 20 2011 @ 20:48 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck

Last week Square Enix released a new patch for the PC version of Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Besides a load of bugfixes and tweaks, this patch also adds advertisements to the load screen. Yuck!

A new patch for the PC version of Deus Ex: Human Revolution has added small adverts into the game which appear during loading screens, along with a flotilla of bugfixes and tweaks.

Rumours have also begun to spread that adverts will appear on in-game billboards too, though Square Enix has yet to respond to our request for comment.

The adverts which are currently visible are small, appearing as little tabs in the corner of load screens. Currently promoted products include the blu-ray re-release of Star Wars.
