Steam is offering Brink as free to play for the weekend until Sunday, 7 August 20.00 CAT (+2 GMT). You can download the game from the Brink Steam store page<\/a>. Brink is also 50% reduced on Steam for this period.<\/p>\n

The Brink Agents of Change DLC has also launched on Steam and is available for free for the first two weeks. The offer ends on 17 August 2011. Agents of Change introduces new maps, abilities, weapon attachments and character outfits.<\/p>\n

I’m hoping that the DLC will be usable for those trying out Brink during the free to play period; perhaps a valiant MyGaming reader can let us know in the comments or the forum if this is the case.<\/p>\n
