It’s not often this happens: Bethesda announced today that its class-based shooter Brink will be released a week early, hitting shelves on May 10 instead of May 17 in the US. A European release will follow on May 13.

“Production wrapped on Brink earlier than we planned and we didn’t see any reason to keep gamers from getting their hands on this highly anticipated game as soon as it was ready,” said Pete Hines, VP of PR and Marketing for Bethesda Softworks. “It’s apparent from the tremendous reaction so far that people are eager to jump online and play, and if we can make that happen earlier – we’re going to.”
