Brink DLC Agent Of Change Release Moved To July

Tweet

Bethesda has revealed that the first Brink DLC, Agent of Change, will now release in early July after originally shooting for a June release. Strangely, this echoes the recent delay of Old World Blues, the newest add-on for Fallout: New Vegas, which was scheduled for a June release but then pushed back to July 19th.

Even though Bethesda announced that Agent of Change would miss its original release window, they also revealed that it will be free for the first two weeks after launch. This isn’t some free-to-play demo, either: download it during that two week period, and it’s yours to keep. Agent of Change will launch across Xbox 360, PS3, and Steam simultaneously, and will add two new environments, five new player abilities, two new outfits, and two new weapon attachments to your game.

Bethesda also said that Splash Damage has been working on a new title update alongside Agent of Change, which is “highlighted by online optimizations, AI enhancements, and weapon balance tweaks based on player feedback.” There’s an incremental update available now for PC players, but Xbox 360 and PS3 owners are going to have to wait until next month until they see anything from this update.

Both Agent of Change and the new title update will launch at the same time, but unfortunately there’s no exact release date yet, with Bethesda only getting as specific as “early July.” We’ll let you know when a more solid release date is revealed, but in the meantime, is anyone picking this up next month?
