We Re-Reckoned it was pretty cool that Kingdoms of Amalur got it’s Re-Reckoning. The last thing we expected was an expansion with heaps of new Amalur. Yet here we are.

2021 might be shit, but this is pretty cool!

It has been almost 10 years since Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning graced our consoles. This year on December 14th, the journey of the Fateless One continues.

After the Crystal War has been fought and Gadlow has been defeated, the people of Amalur were hoping for peace to return to their lands. And although peace has indeed come to Amalur, rumors of a new threat are starting to spread, rising in the far west, the icy lands of Mithros. None other than Telogrus, the God of Chaos himself has awoken and is gathering followers to throw the whole world into chaos!

The upcoming expansion Fatesworn offers a brand new storyline, a new environment, various new quests and missions, new Chaos Realm dungeons all over Amalur, a new gameplay mechanic, new weapons and armour, new enemies, and much more. It will raise the level cap to 50, and even features a new soundtrack by famous composer Grant Kirkhope. Fatesworn does require the base game Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning.
