Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning Is On Sale on Origin Right Now

Given how much I talk about — and praise — the game, I’d be remiss if I didn’t point out that Big Huge Games’ Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning is currently on sale on EA’s Origin storefront for…well, the main game is at half price. And both the Teeth of Naros and Legend of Dead Kel DLC packages are 30% off. Just under $24 for the lot, in other words, which is about $15 cheaper than you’d pay for it on Steam at the moment.

And I do recommend getting both DLC add-ons; they each tell excellent and lengthy stories in their own right, and — as is the case with much of the main game — feature some truly beautiful world design.

Reckoning, in case you’ve not read any of the other stuff I’ve written about it, was a semi-open world action RPG, albeit one that featured a rich story and a deep reserve of backstory lore, released a few years ago. Ian Frazier, better known to us as Tiberius from the Ultima V: Lazarus team, was the lead designer for the game, and there are more than a few sly Ultima references baked into the game.
