According to IGN

In a press release today, Square Enix confirmed that the Deus Ex: Human Revolution Director's Cut will no longer be a Wii U exclusive.
The publisher announced the cut earlier this year, promising exclusivity to Nintendo's console and outlining features which played to the strengths of the Wii U GamePad. Today, Xbox 360, PS3, PC and Mac versions were announced for release later this year.

Wii U just can't catch a break with these 3rd party developers. First Rayman, now this.

In a weird way this is better. Now they're being included instead of just getting a weird late port.

Think they said $50 was the target price. I'd hope it's also $50 for the others. Though being $30 for all of them would be much better

I wish this was a patch for the 360 version, but I bet it's going to be a retail game. Guess I'll get it for PC then.

Still crossing my fingers for a DLC add-on since I already own the game. But I'm not expecting it.

No there's lots of things. The most important changes are reworked boss fights.

Game is done, release the Wii U version first, other versions later. Good on you, SE.

Why do the work for something 50k (at best) will see on the WiiU? It makes sense to port the changes.

It should be DLC though.

Not for Deus 'Explosive Mission Pack' Ex. For PC they could just as easily scrap the old DLC options and GOTY it up to justify a new $40 price tag on it. Then an upgrade option for existing owners for a cool 10-15 bones.

So, what's supposed to be improved in this version?
Because I thought they were just going to add some stupid tablet-friendly feature.

That would be the perfect excuse to play the game over again - which I was going to do anyway. Excellent. Now if we can get a discount for owners of the original...

As far as I know it has redone boss battles. I don't know if anything else is different.

If this leads to a drop on the suggested price, I guess I can wait some more. It's not like I don't have a lot of stuff to play in the meantime, anyway.

Also added DLC weapons and Missing Link to the core campaign. Adam's energy also regenerate two bars instead of one.

It's essentially the "GOTY" version with tweaks here and there.

You've missed out on a great game so far, especially as you'd be able to get it for little or nothing these days.

It better at the very least replace the copies I already have in my Steam library so I dont have multiple listings..

I'm having a hard enough time dealing with the order that The Witcher games are listed in.

It also adds Vita and SmartGlass support for PS3 and 360 versions, like GamePad on Wii U. AI is apparently less stupid.

Good. It was bound to come to other consoles anyway. Proabably at a cheaper price or as DLC. Then people would be angry they paid more on Wii U. I guess all versions will now be $40. Which is better than $50. Will stick pick up on Wii U for Off-tv play

I don't think there is anyway to charge $20 more on one platform for a game that comes out at the same time for every system. I've never heard of such a thing. PR nightmare.

Didn't see this mentioned in the thread already, but the GamePad features will be available on SmartGlass for 360 and Vita cross-controller for PS3 (http://m.joystiq.com/2013/06/11/deus-ex-directors-cut-coming-to-360-ps3-pc-mac-later-this-ye/).

Did they announce the dates for the releases? I know they showed it off at Pax and Amazon had it listed for Wii U release in early May. Did they push that back for the other versions like Rayman?
