The game is being developed by Massive Entertainment in collaboration with Lightstorm Entertainment and Disney. It's going to be a first-person and action-adventure Avatar journey.

The game will be built using the most recent version of the Snowdrop engine, the same engine used for the Division series. It is arriving on the newest generation of consoles, PC, Stadia, and Luna.

Players will take on the role of Na'vi in a standalone story different from any other Avatar media, such as films and books. The story will see players explore a never-before-seen part of Pandora, the Western Frontier.

Much like the Avatar films, humanity is coming to Pandora and pose a massive threat to the Na'vi. The world of Frontiers of Pandora will be a living and reactive world that players need to defend from the RDA.

An exact release date was not given, but Ubisoft did reveal that Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora will be available some time in 2022. What season, quarter, or timeframe for 2022 is yet to be made available.

This is everything we know so far regarding this new Ubisoft title, but expect more information to be brought to light as 2021 progresses through the summer, fall, and winter.

For fans of the Avatar series, it will be well worth the wait as the first of four sequels are set to release in 2022. Frontiers of Pandora looks like a gorgeous open-world adventure.
