After a bit of a controversy two weeks ago, EA has detailed what’s what with the day-one content unlocked with the Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning Online Pass.
The House of Valor DLC – which is, contrary to widespread internet-based raging, a real download, and not originally included on the disc – features seven additional single-player quests and a battle arena, as well as a Mass Effect N7-styled armour set.
“The Grand Champion Tyr Magnus will challenge players to compete in the Valor Arena and overcome all obstacles to survive the barbaric tournament and ultimately seize control of the arena,” says the official press stuff.
“As the player battles through the Valor Arena, they will meet new companions and rivals along the way.
“In addition, players can visit the Arena Battle Board to access a nearly endless variety of combat challenges. By completing bonus objectives in these challenges, like defeating all enemies without taking any damage, players can earn unique items and other rewards.”
The one-shot Online Pass code is included with every new copy of the game, but also available to secondhand buyers for 800 MSP / $9.99. As usual.
