The video’s pretty short, but we get to see Adam Jensen take his sharp beard to some goons in Dubai, deploying the Icarus Landing System and dropping to the floor like the coolest prick around, also punching some dudes, punching a wall, and a bunch of other manly, robot-y stuff.
Whoever is demoing the game is pretty aggressive. The first guy goes down with a punch, and ‘merciful soul’ flashes up on the screen, just before Jensen fires one of his elbow chisels at a man’s face and shoots a guy in the back of the head with a revolver.
