Today we’ve got some exciting news to share about two big Brink updates in the works.
First up, the statistics site will be going live next Tuesday for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 players. PC players can look forward to it going up very soon. This site, located at brinkthegame.com, will be your hub for in-depth stats, including data on matches, players and the overall progress in the weekly Battle for the Ark. Check out the screenshot above for a sneak peek and dig up that VIP code as you’ll need it to register once the stats page is live.
On top of that, the
Agents of Change DLC is just on the horizon, slated for release in June. The pack will bring new maps, abilities, character customization options and weapon attachments to Brink, while also raising the level cap to 24. Here’s a full list of the DLC content:
New Maps - Founders’ Tower â€" The revolution finally reaches the island’s iconic spire and takes the battle for the Ark to dizzying heights.
- Labs â€" 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 â€" 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 â€" Soldiers can use this new grenade to cover an area in a sea of deadly flames.
- Pyro Mine â€" Engineers can plant these mines and leave enemies in the epicenter of a massive napalm explosion.
- Field Regen Unit â€" Medics can deploy these units to increase the health regeneration of any nearby teammates.
- Tactical Scanner â€" 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 â€" Gain the edge in melee combat and cause extra damage with these deadly blades.
- Weapon Shields â€" Take cover from enemy fire and prevent headshot bonus damage behind riot-style shields.
New Character Outfits - The Sad Punk â€" Add a touch of Steampunk to your Resistance character.
- The Limey â€" Bring order to the Ark with this outfit inspired by traditional European police.
In addition to these updates, we’re happy to let you know that the updates we described last week (http://bethblog.com/index.php/2011/05/23/latest-game-update-for-brink-now-on-steam/) will be available for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 this weekend.
