Brink is an intense first-person shooter that combines single-player, co-operative and multiplayer modes in a single experience, allowing you to develop your character by playing alone, with friends or against other players online. Choose the role you want to play in the fight, and battle to survive and save humanity's last refuge. With an appealing combination of dynamic battlefields, extensive customisation options and an innovative control system, the game will quickly draw you in.
Brink takes place in Ark, an artificial floating city on the brink of widespread civil war. Although it was originally built as a self-sufficient, experimental and 100% "green" habitat, the obvious and rapid rise in the Earth's sea levels has caused Ark to stop being solely the home of its original founders and their descendants, becoming instead a place of refuge for thousands of displaced people. At a time when tensions between the two groups are only intensifying, the Security and Resistance forces are engaged in a heated battle for control of Ark. Which side will you choose?
Features:
- You're not just another hero: Brink's advanced character customisation offers an almost limitless combination of features for your character, ensuring that your appearance will be truly unique. As you progress through the game and gain more experience, you'll have more customisation options available.
- Every story has two sides: You can choose between two complete story campaigns, fighting as a member of the Resistance or Security. Play through these campaigns solo, cooperatively or competitively: the choice is yours.
- Pushing the boundaries: Take your unique character into online play whenever you want. Brink lets you move seamlessly between single-player action, co-operative play with friends and intense multiplayer. Multiplayer connects to the online story, where you can play cooperatively with up to seven other people (or AI characters), defeating the opposing faction, or competitively with up to 16 players.
- Smart play, SMART play: This time, the usual controls of any shooter are accompanied by a new feature: the SMART button. When you press this button, the game dynamically evaluates where you're trying to get to and helps you get there. Whether you're already a veteran of first-person shooters or are just taking your first steps in the genre, the SMART feature allows you to make intelligent decisions in the middle of fast-paced action.
- Context-sensitive objectives and rewards: The selection of objectives, communications, missions and inventory is dynamically generated according to your role, status, situation, group members and the overall state of the battle in all game modes. You'll always know exactly where to go, what to do to get there and what the reward will be if you succeed.
