Brink DLC Detailed

[DoctorFinger]

Bethesda & Splash Damage have detailed the first DLC for Brink, entitled "Agents of Change". The DLC, which will be released for free in June, adds 2 new maps, 2 new weapon attachments, 2 new outfits and 5 new perks. The level cap will also be raised from 20 to 24.

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.

A patch for the 360 and PS3 versions of the game should be live this weekend (PC players got this patch already) and the stat tracking site will be active this coming Tuesday.

I'm well up for this. UAV for my Op sounds great, awesome sounding new clothing and my heavy is going to LOVE a riot shield.
