38 Studios and Big Huge Games have just revealed some fresh details about the upcoming Legend of Dead Kel downloadable add-on for their Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning action RPG.

Reckoning impressed us with its great gameplay and stylized graphics, even if it had quite a few problems that kept it from truly rivaling other role playing games like The Witcher 2 or Skyrim.

In order to increase the already massive amount of content present in the game, its two developers confirmed yesterday that the Legend of Dead Kel DLC would be released later this month.

Some fresh details are now available about the upcoming add-on, including a full description and quite a lot of screenshots depicting the enemies you’ll fight and the places you’ll visit throughout the new quest line.

“The legendary pirate Dead Kel and his Hanged Men have returned to haunt the seas of northern Amalur,” the add-ons description reads. “Embark on a journey to the distant island of Gallows End with the eccentric Captain Brattigan in an adventure that will uncover a secret so great that it has incited wars and toppled kingdoms. Discover powerful new weapons and Twist of Fate Cards and use them to conquer the island's unique inhabitants.”

“Become the Lord of Gravehal Keep and lay claim to this once great fort that stands upon the edge of a cliff in the most expansive player housing option yet. In an extensive new story and a host of new side quests, battle treacherous new enemies and face exciting new challenges on the mysterious island of Gallows End.”

As you can see, plenty of new things are included in this add for Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning. The Legend of Dead Kel DLC will cost $9.99/€9.99 on the PS3 or PC, and 800 MS Points on the Xbox 360.

Until March 20, when the add-on arrives, check out the screenshots below.
