Random: ‘Brink’ Fan Says They’ll Keep Buying Copies Until Xbox Makes A Sequel

Remember the 2011 first-person shooter Brink? This was actually a pretty successful release from Gears Tactics developer Splash Damage back in the Xbox 360 days, and there’s one fan who seems to love it more than anyone else.

Over the Christmas period, we’ve noticed a Redditor by the name of Brink_2_ embarking on a campaign called “Brinkmas” where they attempt to acquire a copy of Brink every single day. It’ll probably slow down a bit as we get into 2024, but they still don’t intend to stop buying the game until a sequel is commissioned!

According to the Reddit user, they’re buying £1 copies of Brink at a time, presumably from a local charity shop or something along those lines, and their multi-year collection has definitely attracted plenty of attention so far.

In terms of why they’re so committed to cause? Apparently it’s just for the fun of it:

You may not recall that Bethesda Softworks actually published Brink back in the day, so we’re assuming the IP remains with Microsoft at the moment – and even if it doesn’t, developer Splash Damage often works closely with Xbox.

Sadly though, the game isn’t backwards compatible in any fashion on Xbox One, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, so the only way to enjoy it is either on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 or the free-to-play release on PC.

Will Xbox ever decide to commission a sequel?! It seems very unlikely at this point, but never say never!
