The new characters follow the design aesthetic established by the Todd McFarlane originals, with comic book-style exaggerated proportions and musculature, and most of the monsters in Fatesworn are re-skinned Chaos versions of existing Amalur foes.īy expanding the level cap to 50, and offering more powerful equipment and items, Fatesworn maintains Amalur's sense of progression from the original campaign, even for players who had already hit the prior level cap of 40. High end PCs will show Mithros at its best, even more so than when playing on a PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series console. Snowy hills and valleys are a nice change of pace from the other regions in the main campaign and its prior expansions, but as a remaster of a 2012 title, none of Amalur’s characters or environments are particularly jaw-dropping. Graphically, the Mithros region looks as good as the rest of Re-Reckoning for the most part, which is a mixed bag. The new nemesis of Telogrus is soon introduced, a mortal man claiming to be the incarnation of the God of Chaos, who promises to free the people of Amalur from the shackles of destiny once and for all. The initial story beats address some of the fallout of the war with the dark fey, as refugees and surviving veterans of the campaign use border passes to enter the icy land of Mithros, along with the player’s Fateless One.

The expansion does add a new skill tree in Chaos Sight, which interacts with the expansion’s new Chaos Portals, as well as Chaos Weapons which are required to break the barriers of creatures from the plane of Chaos. Fatesworn is an expansion, not a full sequel title, so the customizable ability trees, fast-paced combat, and non-combat exploration-oriented abilities that Amalur veterans are familiar with are all still present. All of the core mechanics of the game remain unchanged.


Amalur's Fatesworn DLC provides a decent follow-up campaign, but its greatest strength is simply that it is more Amalur, offering players a final quest for their high-level Fateless One.
