EA are no strangers to RPG’s, especially with a powerhouse like Bioware under their umbrella. Games like Mass Effect and Dragon Age have left gamers with a taste for fantasy role playing action. Well don’t worry EA are definitely aiming to feed our taste for RPG’s with a completely new fantasy series named Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning. Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning is supported by an all-star cast that includes a lead designer that has worked on the Elder Scrolls games, an artist that created Spawn and a story that is penned by a New York Times’ bestselling author.
