Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning originally released in 2012 on PC, PS3, and Xbox 360. The action role-playing video game was developed by Big Huge Games and 38 Studios and published by Electronic Arts (EA). In September 2020, THQ Nordic dropped a remastered version of the game on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. Also, it came out on the Nintendo Switch on March 16, 2021.
One of the types of weapons that is usable to the Fateless One, the protagonist of the game, is the Longsword. It is a melee weapon that relies on precise attacks and close-range combat. Typically, the Longsword excels at one enemy at a time, cutting them down quickly before moving on to the next one. This weapon is a part of the Might-based, which fighter-style characters take the most advantage of via the abilities Brutal Weaponry and Longsword Mastery.
