DXN - Deus Ex: Nihilum (1.7)


Please install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 runtimes before installing the mod itself!



Initial Story (Main Campaign)
2049. Unsavory conditions are rampant throughout the world. As soon as it becomes clear that a terrorist attack in Shenzhen, China, was carried out by perpetrators with ties to international groups and that Hong Kong may be their next target - the United Nations Anti-Terrorist Coalition (UNATCO) dispatches their first nano-augmented agent, Mad Ingram, into the city to prevent the situation from escalating any further.

Initial Story (Epilogue DLC)
2052. The Gray Death epidemic is spreading like wildfire across the world. UNATCO Agent Mad Ingram has been ordered to kill Greg Powell - a wanted international terrorist reportedly in possession of illegally acquired ambrosia. Currently hiding somewhere in the American city of North Monroe, agent Ingram has to get rid of Powell and secure the ambrosia before it's too late.

- Exploration is essential! Treat the levels as mazes and prepare for back-tracking!
- Save often and use several savegame slots! This will hopefully save you a lot of time when it comes to handling certain odd issues.
- Encrypted datacubes: Remember, once you've hacked an encrypted datacube, you have to click on it again to make the datacube information window disappear.
- General rule on hacking: Keep in mind that you do not need this skill to advance the main plot itself. However, its general usefulness cannot be underestimated!

Because of the millions of different hardware and software combinations possible with today's personal computers, under no circumstances including negligence shall FastGamerr or anyone else be held liable for any incidental, special, consequential or any other damages that may result from the use or inability to use this mod/add-on content.


Enormous thanks to everyone who had a part in making the mod - RetroXor and fender2k1 above anyone else - and to everyone who played it!


The original version of the mod (first released on May 28th 2013) was replaced with the Final Anniversary Update (1.7) on December 21st 2018.

And that's all, folks! It was a pleasure for me to make one last return to the best game ever made:
Deus Ex.

I wish you all the best. :]

Nice one man! I'm going to go check this out soon. :)

I hope that my Mad Ingram is mad enough for DXN, XD

Looking forward to dusting this off again :-)

Quick question: does the Epilogue DLC follow on from a specific ending? If so, which one? At a guess I want to say the "Sacrifice" ending but just wanted to check :-)

The thanks are ours/mine - this is one of my favourite DX mods, along with TNM, 2027 and GMDX :-)
