NEW Avatar Video Game set 7,000 YEARS in past!

I’ve got some huge news for you all today, and it's something that’s been on all our wishlists for a long time. That’s right—Avatar: The Last Airbender is finally getting its first-ever AAA video game! If you saw my earlier video, which you can check out here, I basically called this! I talked about my dream Avatar game, and now it looks like that dream is finally becoming a reality. But there’s even more to this story, and we’re going to dive into all of it—including the studio behind the game, Saber Interactive, and what their involvement means for the Avatar universe.

I really really hope it's good! Avatar hasn't had the best luck with video games in the past, but here's hoping. The potential is there!

[BaronVladHarkonnen]

What would bring in a lot of replayability to a game like this would be choosing your nation, which would offer different character creator options, ie airbender tattoos, and alternate story paths meeting certain characters at different points and forming different relationships with them and learning elements at a different point of the game. It’s unlikely this would ever be a feature but can you imagine?!

[shakedmar]

I really want the bending system to be like an evolved version of the Ghost Of Tsushima stance system. A system that allows you to use various completely different forms of combat, but still let's you switch between them instantly, being in complete control always.

Nice to see avatar in its own little renaissance.

There's a lot of potential for an Avatar game and a lot of ways it can be executed. It's an action RPG, so it could be as straightforward as Elden Ring, as expansive as The Witcher 3 or as complex as Dragon's Dogma.

It needs solid storytelling, exploration and role playing mechanics, but most importantly, they've got to get the combat right. It can't be a basic button mash experience. It needs the breadth to allow the player to express themselves through each bending art, and it needs depth to allow the player to explore sub bending styles and develop unique combat approaches by mixing moves and chaining techniques from standard bending with sub disciplines, and incorporating melee weapons and environmental interactions to push the limits of creativity.

God the potential is so high. If done correctly with gameplay that SLAPS it could mean big things for the franchise. As a huge gamer and even huger ATLA fan tho I selfishly want this SO F’ng badly 😭🙌 bro thanks for going into detail about the games this company has made and more importantly the gameplay mechanics and atmosphere they’ve created for them cuz I have ALOT more hope for this now. Legit so hype for this.

[ShadowRaptorO]

Calling it now: the new Avatar is literally a "you, the player" character with no canon gender, race or name, but they will still be considered canon because "that info about them was lost to time"

[kagami_kun]

if they are gonna do an RPG style, they could probably take example with Genshin impact as a reference. I wanna see some elemental reaction such as vaporisation if you use water and fire or electrocution with water and lightning.

Also, making the MC thinking he/she is a non bender at first would be a good start since they could learn each elements one by one over the time and limiting his powercreep at the beginning of the game.

[bitmagic]

The rpg is also my dream pitch for an avatar game! Im hoping we get to customize our character and pick our starting nation!! Also I had no idea about the avatar fight game 🙀 that's exciting tooo

[ericschuller]

My animal companion would have to be a dragon. Maybe I'm a bit boring, but dragons are always going to be awesome!

[vaquishers]

They should do an Avatar MMO where everyone’s character is the avatar but from an undisclosed point of time due to spirit world and timespace shenanigans

[micah]

I hope this is good because we need a good Avatar game. I just wish it wasn't set in the past because I want to play as familiar faces. Also, because it's in the past, we won't see things like bloodbending or metal bending

[aladiex]

We already have key moments from the past. 1 thousand years before Korra we have Hundun (And its probable origin).
4 thousand years before we have Laghima and Shoken. We also have Zalir, Gun and Salai as possible character expansions.

Another interesting point is that if it is before the formation of the 4 nations there is a great possibility of there being many "nations" associated with the ethnicities. For example: Zhangs and Gan Jin Tribes, Sandbenders tribes. That the Northern Tribe is not the origin of the "Water Nation", but perhaps it is the Water Tribe Sacred Island or because the separate air temples keep sovereignties aligned. Could it be that there was a nomadic war considering that there are many nomadic buildings within the Earth Kingdom territories?

[KVNGQUAN]

Bruh if there gonna do this it has to be completely OPEN WORLD ITS JUST GOTTS BE DONE

[alebander]

Man, it’s been a long time since I’ve been hype for Avatar !

[silver]

You know this probably means that we get at least five new avatars, that being the player character and the four before them (except if we play the Avatar immediately after Wan but this would also be coo because that means the new Avatar would literally have to find out what the Avatar's role in the world is).

[uncleirohsteashop]

I very much agree with your point about them needing to make the world feel lived in and alive. I would assume that whatever time period they set it in is not going to be in a 100 year war like the time period that we know so well. It could be an era of peace so we have to see how the factors into the story and other elements of gameplay, no pun intended.

[InfiniteDarkness]

I know it probably won't happen but being able to metal bend or blood bend could be sick. But from what I can tell from watching Avatar. That won't happen. But who knows 🤔

[Joker-xvce]

I really hope we can create and costumitze our own avatar (nationality, colour skin, gender etc...) ...I can't wait to play the game

[DrJiKentauriuzHero]

I hope they incorporate specialized bending and sub-bending types into the character creation. And I don't just mean lightning bending or metal bending or combustionbending, I also mean the unusual bending styles like armless waterbending, or sandbending.
