Electronic Arts and 38 Studios plan to release the action-RPG, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, in Europe on February 10, 2012 and in North America on February 7, 2012. Reckoning is an epic single-player RPG - and the first chapter of series of games set in a fantasy universe - that sends players on a fast-paced journey to unlock the mysteries of Amalur.

"Reckoning is just the beginning of the deep, expansive lore and massive world that is Amalur," said Curt Schilling, Chairman and Founder of 38 Studios. "We're working with iconic visionaries who have trailblazed the direction of their respective fields. Todd McFarlane lends his expertise to inspire the game's bold art style and combat design, R.A. Salvatore created the deep, immersive history and culture of the world, and industry-icon Ken Rolston forges the expansive systems that RPG fans know and love. Reckoning has developed into something amazing and beyond my wildest dreams -- I cannot wait to share it with gamers across the world next February."

Developed by 38 Studios subsidiary Big Huge Games in Baltimore, Maryland and 38 Studios in Providence, Rhode Island, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning features a storyline crafted by R.A. Salvatore, art from Todd McFarlane and the technical expertise of former Bethesda Softworks developer Ken Rolston.
