Kingdoms of Amalur Pre-Order Bonus Items Revealed!
I always love pre-order bonuses with my games, although my enthusiasm does tend to diminish when there are 20 different sets of pre-order items to be had, thereby forcing me to make the toughest decision about the game before I even play. That being said, Electronic Arts and 38 Studios' Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning pre-order bonus items are shaping up to look very nice indeed.
The companies revealed today that the items come in three packs: one with a reagent Dowsing Rod that detects all potion-making vegetation on the map; another with a Twist of Fate Card, a Compass of Fate and three armor sets (one per character type); or, finally, a full Fae-touched Weapons Pack for all your monster-mashing needs. You can view images of all of the packs after the jump!
Senior Staff Writer Christopher "Pwyff" Tom is currently in Baltimore getting some hands-on time with Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, so you can expect to hear some more details on this highly anticipated RPG in the very near future! The game is scheduled to launch on PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in North America on February 7, 2012 and in Europe on February 10, 2012.
The Destinies Choice Pack: Offers a unique "Twist of Fate" card to enhance the beginning of your gameplay experience, the Compass of Fate and three unique armor sets. Each armor set is tailored to a specific class which players will define and redefine during their time in Amalur.
The Fate-Touched Weapons Pack: Players can enter battle as fully prepared as ever with an arsenal of rare Fate-Touched weapons including a longbow, hammer, staff, faeblades, daggers, scepter, chakrams, longsword and greatsword. The weapons will help satisfy every player’s combat style with Reckoning’s on-the-fly weapon swapping in combat to take down even the most dreadful of foes.
The Ultimate Treasure Hunter Pack: For treasure hunters who will dive into every nook and cranny in the world of Amalur, the Dowsing Rod will seek out all reagents for concocting potions on your in-game map. A worthy companion tool for any adventurer, the Dowsing Rod will help players get the most out of their alchemy skill.
