Avatar: Frontiers Of Pandora - Story Gameplay Release Date

Ubisoft has had prior experience with the Avatar franchise, with a 2009 movie tie-in game that served as a prequel for the first film and saw players taking control of either a member of the Na'vi or the RDA (Resource Development Administration) with different gameplay and weapons depending on what they chose. Ubisoft created the upcoming Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora in collaboration with Disney and James Cameron’s production company, Lightstorm Entertainment, and the title promises a much larger experience than Ubisoft's more linear 2009 title, with players able to explore a completely new area of Pandora for the first time via a massive open-wo


The basic overview of the story so far is that you were a young Na'vi taken from your family by a villainous RDA member named John Mercer to turn against your people and adapt to human ways of life. You eventually escape and slowly need to readapt to your Na'vi culture, allying with clans and taking on the RDA's destruction of the environment. Similar to Jake Sully, you're perceived as an outsider and need to earn the Na'vi's tr


Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is primarily a first-person open-world action-adventure game. It does, however, appear to have moments of third-person gameplay when taming and utilizing the creatures on Pandora such as the flying Ikran or the Zakru of the upper planes as mounts to traverse the world of Pandora, with the Ikran also assisting with aerial combat against the RDA. Players will also be able to visit the tribe's Hometree and use it as a refuge to rest and learn from the others who inhabit


When we're introduced to the human encampment on Pandora and shown the rapid expansion of its human-friendly environment, we're given a brief explanation as to why the government bodies of Earth are so interested in the planet in the first place. It turns out that the Earth is quickly deteriorating, and mankind will soon need a new celestial body to call h


When Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora’s movie inspiration was released over a decade ago, it had some of the best visuals of any film at the time. Avatar’s stunning computer graphics and special effects allowed for seamless transitions between live-action shots and animated ones. A lot of technology went into making the movie one of the most technically innovative films of the time, and now it looks like Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is keeping the innovative spirit of the franchise al


As previously mentioned, the initial Avatar game took on a third-person perspective. For Frontiers Of Pandora Ubisoft noted at E3 that this newer title would actually be a first-person action-adventure . There's likely a number of reasons for t


For stealth, you have the long bow weapon and a new weapon type called a staff sling, which launches objects and explosive traps (presumably like sticky bombs or mines). AMP suits can be taken down with assault rifles, pistols, shotguns, and a rocket launcher, and you can pull the RDA soldier right


The Way of Water introduces the underwater Spirit Tree of the aquatic Metkayina tribe. It functions similarly to the forest Na'vi's Tree of Souls, but allows for certain Na'vi to manipulate the aquatic life that surrounds it, connecting them to the very ecosystem that they inhabit. Hopefully, Frontiers of Pandora will explore this concept even further. More Spirit Trees could be connected to different environments, allowing for new connections and abilities that are tied to the pla

Even with how hard it has been to get a hold of next-gen consoles it is likely only the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S consoles could handle the workload of Frontiers of Pandora . Where PCs are upgradable the static nature of console hardware probably has no ideal technical solution for the game to be realized correctly on last-gen consoles. The decision was likely hard to make but the commitment put into the Avatar game has helped Ubisoft Action Adventure earn Disney's tru


The release date for Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora was announced at Ubisoft Forward 2023. Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora will release on December 7, 2023, mirroring the Winter release windows for both The Way of Water and the upcoming Avatar sequels. Pre-orders are available now and include the Child of Two Worlds Pack, which incorporates a cosmetic set and weapon sk


Like other creatures on Pandora, the Na'vi can connect to Ikran through their braids, which act like chords joining them together. What distinguishes Ikran, however, is setting up the link permanently ties it to the rider. This means that any Na'vi and an Ikran that form this link remain lifelong companions. Because of this, many Na'vi clans view bonding with an Ikran as a rite of passage and most Na'vi warriors have an Ik


In addition to the film sequel The Way of Water , the world is getting revisited with Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora . Ubisoft's open-world adventure will allow players to freely explore James Cameron's alien world on a level far greater than he could show on film. There is plenty of Far Cry -style action involving gunplay and carnage, but one interesting detail has been revealed. A central part of the game will involve the player getting with an Ikran of their own , but what exactly is an Ikran? And why is it so significant to Avatar l
