In "Deus Ex: Mankind Divided," the focus revolves once more around the split between humanity - the "pure" humans and the "augmented" humans. In true "Deus Ex" form, "augmented" humans will continue to bear the blame for the global chaos that ensued at the end of "Deus Ex: Human Revolution."
Jensen, being the "Adam" (or the first) of augmented soldiers is on the unpleasant end of this mindset. The "Deus Ex: Mankind Divided" trailer this seemed to exhibit the animosity between Adam Jensen and his INTERPOL compatriots.
