Avatar: Frontiers Of Pandora
Credit score: Ubisoft
Hopefully by 2022 the PS5 and Xbox Collection X received’t be made out of Unobtanium as a result of that’s when Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora comes out on PlayStation 5, Xbox Collection X|S, PC, Stadia and Luna. Whereas Stadia and Luna will not be unimaginable to come back by, Microsoft and Sony’s consoles, and any form of trendy GPU for PC gaming, positively are.
By 2022 that ought to have eased up a bit, and which means you’ll be capable to play as a blue-skinned, 8-foot-tall Na’vi working and flying across the lush jungle planet of Pandora and preventing depraved human colonizers out to steal your precious-yet-unobtainable—sigh—pure assets. The sport is a first-person shooter—or first-person, in any case. You’ll have a bow, however this isn’t a shooter within the conventional sense.
Right here’s the trailer:
The sport is below growth by Large, the studio behind a bunch of various Ubisoft gems from Far Cry 3 to The Division and an unnamed Star Wars undertaking. I believe the trailer truly appears fairly cool, however I nonetheless suppose it’s a bit humorous that the sport comes out 13 years after the James Cameron movie, again when that film launched a brand new period of 3D moviegoing that has now, as soon as once more, fizzled out.
The timing of the sport makes extra sense when you think about the discharge date of Avatar 2: December of 2022 (after a number of delays). That’s 13 years after the unique film additionally. Which makes me take into consideration George R.R. Martin’s Winds of Winter. A Dance With Dragons got here out in 2011, which was simply 10 years in the past. He may—and we’re speaking a really slim likelihood right here—truly launch Winds in much less time than it took Cameron to launch a brand new Avatar!
In any case, there wasn’t a ton to get enthusiastic about throughout Ubisoft’s E3 showcase yesterday, however I believe this one appears form of enjoyable—higher late than by no means, because the saying goes. And it does look fairly fairly:
