It allows the Na'vi to connect, communicate and interact directly with Eywa, the sentient life force of the planet Pandora . The Way of Water , meanwhile, shows the Spirit Tree, the underwater version from the aquatic Metkayina tribe. It functions similarly to the Forest Na'vi's Tree of Souls but allows certain Na'vi to manipulate the aquatic life around it, connecting them to the very ecosystem they inhabit.

At Ubisoft's E3 Forward event, the first glimpse of Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora was shown. The game will draw from James Cameron's critically acclaimed Avatar film and is confirmed to be a first-person action-adventure game. In it, the player will step into the shoes of a Na'vi and explore the Western side of the planet, which has never been seen before. Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is exclusively a next-gen title, and it looks like Ubisoft intends to take full advantage of t
