What has been updated in this remaster? Well, one welcome change is the removal of level locking. No one watching this game in motion is going to mistake it for a new release.

There aren’t even many graphics options in the PC version. Parts of the varied fantasy world look a little bit brighter, but overall it doesn’t appear that textures have seen much of an improvement. Character models are a little bit smoother.

Honestly, it’s a struggle to even note much of an update to the graphics. So it’s ironic that, given the opportunity to do whatever they wanted with this last-gen cult classic from 2012, developer Kaiko and publisher THQ Nordic did so little to improve the experience for the remaster. In Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, you play as the “Fateless One,” a hero unique in the world for his ability to change the fates of others however he or she sees fit.
