Avatar: The Last Airbender “AAA” Game In Development At Space Marine 2 Studio Saber Interactive
Paramount Game Studios and Saber Interactive have officially confirmed that a “AAA” game set in the universe of Avatar: The Last Airbender is in development. Currently in production, the game is being produced in collaboration with Avatar Studios, a division launched by the show’s original creators Michael DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko back in 2021 so that the IP could expand through multiple forms of media.
The companies behind this game are calling it (via IGN) “the biggest video game in franchise history,” and while details are slim right now, it has been confirmed that it will focus on an “all-new, never-before-seen Avatar” and is set thousands of years in the past of the Avatar Legends universe. Not to be confused with James Cameron’s blockbuster movie franchise, Avatar tells the story of a world where humanity has learned to harness the four primal elements of nature.
Known as benders, these are people who can control water, earth, fire, and air through unique martial arts movements, but only one person can wield all four elements in harmony. That individual is the Avatar, a being who is charged with maintaining the balance between people and spirits. Only one Avatar can exist at any time, and upon death, they reincarnate and restart their journey to master the elements. For the game, Paramount and Saber says that players can expect dynamic combat, a vibrant world, and story elements both new and familiar to fans of the Avatar franchise.
