Explore a living and reactive world inhabited by unique creatures and new characters, and push back the formidable RDA forces that threaten it.' Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora: news and rumors It takes place on another frontier, another area of the moon of Pandora.'Īccording to the game's official site, the game will take players into a 'standalone story' where they'll 'play as a Na’vi and embark on a journey across the Western Frontier, a never-before-seen part of Pandora. 'That’s why it’s called Frontiers of Pandora. It’s an all new open world, new characters,' Priore added. 'The whole idea is to have it be part of the storyline of that giant franchise on Pandora, but it’s not a 'play the movie' game. They want to interact with their favorite characters and worlds, but they want to play new stories and do new things with those characters and worlds.' That was popular at the time, but gamers expect more now. “Things like the classic Aladdin game on Sega Genesis. You bought the game and played the movie,” Priore said. “There was a time 15 or 20 years ago where playing the movie was something. In an interview with VentureBeat, Luigi Priore, vice president of Disney and Pixar Games, said that Frontiers of Pandora will skip past the characters and plot of the original Avatar film and its upcoming sequel, in favor of telling an all-new story.

That's not to say the game won't have an original story, though.

The Na’Vi jumps on a Great Leonopteryx, firing arrows at the helicopter, before a final arrow fixed with an explosive device hits the vehicle, which then bursts into flames. The trailer shows RDA helicopters on the warpath, trying to destroy a Na’Vi. We’re hoping this could mean online play - we also hope we can customize our Na’Vi.įrom the trailer, it also looks like Pandora’s native Na’Vi will be taking on the RDA, like in the film, who threaten to destroy their world and have quite the collection of armed tech at their disposal. There also seems to be some sort of hub for Na’Vi to congregate in. The world also seems to be inhabited by creatures we both have - and haven’t - seen in the film, so expect some surprises. We also see a Na’Vi riding a mount - that doesn’t quite look like a Direhorse - suggesting that we will hopefully be able to partake in mounted combat, or we’ll at least be able to traverse Pandora on (kind of) horseback. The official site for the game describes it as a 'first-person action adventure' that's set in an 'immersive, open world' and the trailer gives us a brief look at this first-person perspective. Details on Frontiers of Pandora’s gameplay and story are a bit light right now but we’ve been able to gather a few potential snippets from the game’s reveal trailer and Ubisoft's site.
