Deus Ex: Human Revolution launching August 23rd in US, 26th in UK

Eidos Montreal have confirmed that Deus Ex: Human Revolution will launch in the US and Europe this coming August via a Tweet on their official Twitter Feed.

The tweet confirms that the game will arrive in the US on August 23rd 2011, while the UK and the rest of Europe will get the game a few days later on August 26th.

Game Director Jean-François Dugas teased an announcement of the release date was coming this week via a twitter post last week.

The futuristic RPG which combines shooter and RPG traditions was originally delayed back in December after a disasterous set of financial results for Square Enix saw the company decide that it might be better to hold this particular big title off until the next fiscal year, as 2010/11 was already a wash thanks to the botched launch of Final Fantasy XIV.

Square Enix announced am Augmented Edition of the game for Europe late last year. It'll feature a bunch of extra stuff for fans of the series to drool over. You can find all the screenshots, artwork and trailers of Deux Ex: Human Revolution over in the Media Vault.
