"Because of the backlash from fans that occurred after the game's reveal. It debuted back in September on a PlayStation State of Play event with a brief gameplay teaser. The graphical overhaul was the most immediately noticeable change, and fans were less than impressed. Currently, the top comment says it best: "upgraded visuals from 2000 to 2006." The biggest criticisms are levelled at the atmosphere, which the graphical overhaul changes quite a bit."

Aspyr indefinitely delayed the planned February 5, 2026 launch of Deus Ex Remastered following widespread negative reaction to the game's reveal. The remaster debuted in September during a PlayStation State of Play event with a brief gameplay teaser that showcased a heavy graphical overhaul. Fans criticized the visual changes as dated and argued the overhaul altered the original atmosphere of the game. Aspyr responded by pausing the release, announcing refunds for all existing pre-orders, and providing no new release date. Some readers briefly misinterpreted the announcement as a cancellation, though the project appears to remain active.
