14 DAY TRIAL // Brink, the newest first-person shooter from developer Splash Damage and publisher Bethesda, will be getting its first piece of downloadable content later this month, when the two companies deploy the Agents of Change pack.
Brink was released last month as an attempt to combine a traditional single-player shooter campaign with its multiplayer mode, allowing players to act as one of two sides in a futuristic war scenario.
The game wasn't the most polished title ever released, so Splash Damage and Bethesda worked hard to fix the many glitches that plagued it by deploying several updates for those who had paid good money for Brink.
Now, as a token of appreciation, the two companies have detailed the upcoming Agents of Change DLC, which is going to be released free of charge.
The downloadable content pack brings new maps, weapon attachments, as well as abilities and outfits for players, while raising the level cap to 24.
Check out the complete list of changes brought forth by the Agents of Change DLC for Brink below.
New Maps
- Founders' Tower - The revolution finally reaches the island's iconic spire and takes the battle for the Ark to dizzying heights. - Labs - Venture into the depths of the Ark's original research and development laboratories, a submerged high-tech facility so far untouched by the civil war.
New Player Abilities
- UAV - This stealthy and lethal device allows Operatives to automatically mark nearby enemies on their radar. For more explosive fun, they can even take direct control of the UAV and detonate it near unsuspecting foes. - Napalm Grenade - Soldiers can use this new grenade to cover an area in a sea of deadly flames. - Pyro Mine - Engineers can plant these mines and leave enemies in the epicenter of a massive napalm explosion. - Field Regen Unit - Medics can deploy these units to increase the health regeneration of any nearby teammates. - Tactical Scanner - This universal ability allows players to reveal the active buffs of their opponents, allowing them to pick off enemies more strategically.
New Weapon Attachments
- Bayonets - Gain the edge in melee combat and cause extra damage with these deadly blades. - Weapon Shields - Take cover from enemy fire and prevent headshot bonus damage behind riot-style shields.
New Character Outfits
- The Sad Punk - Add a touch of Steampunk to your Resistance character. - The Limey - Bring order to the Ark with this outfit inspired by traditional European police.
Brink is getting the Agents of Change DLC later this month, while a new patch was already deployed across the PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 platforms.
