Brink patch is live on PS3 and Xbox 360, DLC plans detailed

Developer Splash Damage has let us know that title updates are now available for both PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions of Brink, while detailing plans for upcoming downloadable content and the ‘statistics site’ page for the consoles.

Let’s talk about that statistic site first: If you’ve been indulging in a bit of Brink over the last few weeks since its release, you can head on over to BrinkTheGame.com and visit “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.”

So if you’re a stats junkie, that’s the place to be.

Brink’s ‘Agents of Change’ downloadable content (DLC) is also due for release in June, and will bring “new maps, abilities, character customization options and weapon attachments to Brink, while also raising the level cap to 24.”

Here’s a very detailed explanation of what you’ll be getting in the ‘Agents of Change’ DLC next month:

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.
