Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is confirmed to be an open-world game and Pandora begs to be explored, so exploration is likely to be a huge part of gameplay. Exploring the world of Pandora from the back of a Banshee would be amazing, and might end up being the best part of the entire game. With a Banshee, the world becomes a whole lot bigger and would allow players to reach places that would be otherwise unreacha
Magnus Jansen: Right. So to me, when I watched the movies, especially the first one all those years ago, I came out of the movie theater and I had this feeling that I had been to a place, because the world was so - the crafting was so qualitative with such detail, not just in the technical expression and realization, but in all the backstory and image source the clans. And everything just was so well-made that it felt like a real place. And that's immersion - it's escapism, pure escapism. You're transported somewhere. And that kind of escapism I think is super powerful, and one of the big reasons I play video games. And to go to a place and be there, I think it's essential that it has a good balance of danger, but also just niceness to hang
Frontiers of Pandora has the potential to allow us an even closer look at the ways these segmented Na'vi differ from one another. While it wouldn't be surprising for director James Cameron to save newer types of Na'vi for the films, it would also be thrilling to have the opportunity to explore the differences that exist even among the various forest and ocean tribes that we know
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
The depth of these reactive pieces of the environment might still be a bit vague but the demonstrations given so far are exciting. Certain flowers that players come across appear to react to their presence immediately. During the daytime, this may be as simple as blooming but at night the interactions can become incredibly complex light shows. The presence of these complex systems in Avatar 2 is likely, but their execution in a playable game is incredi
The Avatar franchise is set to return in a big way with James Cameron's multiple sequels , the continued expansion of Pandora at Walt Disney Parks, and the release of a brand new video game titled Frontiers Of Pandora. This is really the first time fans have had the chance to revisit the IP on screen since the release of the original film in 2
In the Avatar film , the Mountain Banshees mark a significant rite of passage that is essential for all members of the Na'vi. The creatures look somewhat like dragons and serve as mounts and companions for their warriors. For Jake Sully, obtaining a Banshee of his own is one of the most important story beats because it means he has been fully accepted into the tribe as a warrior, to the point of being allowed to take a wife. It's essentially a coming-of-age ceremony that every Na'vi must compl
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is exclusively next-gen, so players should expect to see the game take full advantage of the PS5 and Xbox Series X's hardware. Ubisoft has the opportunity to push next-gen visuals and gameplay with its Avatar title , and making Banshee riding an unforgettable experience is the perfect way to st
Interestingly, this is not the first time that Ubisoft has worked on a game in this world. They had previously released James Cameron's Avatar: The Video Game in 2009 which was a third-person action-adventure. The title received mixed reviews and wasn't considered a great expansion of the franchise , but Ubisoft would have learned a lot of lessons si
Ubisoft's Avatar game could capitalize on these concepts by offering a wide range of rideable creatures throughout Pandora, letting you traverse the land, sea, and air easily. There's even room for more animals to be introduced in the game — after all, who knows what else lurks in the mysterious planet's environm
On the opposite end of Pandora, far from its lush natural environments, humans have begun to expand their presence on the planet at an alarming rate. The first film sets up the many interests humans have in the planet and its resources, and The Way of Water explains that, because of their technological advancements and funding from the RDA organization, they've been able to essentially build a full city on Pandora in a matter of mon
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
