Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning System Requirements Announced

I suspect that many of us will be playing 38 Studios’ Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning on our PCs, so it might not be a bad idea to take a gander at the newly revealed system requirements to make sure the open-world RPG is going to play properly. Note the need for an Internet connection for activation at the end, which I believe is due to the game’s exclusivity to Origin:
