I haven't covered this game previously, but someone told me it might be Morrowind Reloaded with better design and lore, I never played Morrowind but I've heard it had cool underwater areas so I might as well post about this one. Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning is Ken Rolston's (ex-Bethesda employee, Lead Designer on Morrowind, now with Big Huge Games) big new project.
 
Reckoning is an epic, open world role-playing game that gives fans their first experience with Kingdoms of Amalur™, a new universe imagined by R.A. Salvatore, brought to life by Todd McFarlane, and designed by Ken Rolston and his team at Big Huge Games.
 
The release date has been officially announced, February 7th 2012 for North America and February 12th for Europe. Read the press releases at our press release storage.
 
Plus, here's a GamesCom trailer.
