A few months after the event, EA and 38 Studios have released some of the promised gameplay footage from the PAX East 2011 presentation where they showed their new action RPG Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning to the world for the first time.

Today's clip offers five minutes of gameplay footage, narrated by Lead Designer Ian Frazier and although it's only a small section of the demo that was shown at PAX, it does offer the best look at the game of any of the released media so far.

In particular, the video illustrates how much more attention the team are paying to character animations in the game. Where most Action-style RPG games will just have you wildly swinging a sword at your foes ad-infinitum, you'll see in the video that Reckoning has a much more kinetic and dynamic way of presenting combat interactions.
