There is exciting news for those who love Avatar: The Last Airbender! According to a report from IGN, Saber Interactive and Paramount Game Studios are hard at work creating an action RPG that is set in the Avatar: The Last Airbender universe. Although this game will take place in the same world as the beloved original series and its follow-up, The Legend of Korra, it will introduce a brand new storyline. The most thrilling part is that this new Avatar game is being developed as a true AAA title, marking the largest project in the franchise's history.
New Avatar, New Story
As reported by IGN, this game will unfold a fresh narrative and allow players to step into the shoes of a new Avatar who existed thousands of years prior to the events of the original series. Players will have the ability to master all four elements and make choices that will influence the world's equilibrium. The story is being crafted in close partnership with Avatar Studios, which is headed by the creators of the series, Michael DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko.
A Promising Development Team
Saber Interactive has a reputation for creating successful games, including Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 and World War Z, alongside their contributions to the Halo Master Chief Collection. Therefore, it seems that they have the right ingredients for an amazing Avatar game. Josh Austin from Saber Interactive mentioned that the development team is filled with dedicated fans who are eager to broaden the Avatar universe.
Community Reaction
The feedback from the Reddit community about this new Avatar RPG is largely positive. However, many fans believe it might be several years before the game actually comes out. After all, developing a role-playing game often takes a significant amount of time. Currently, the game is in its early development stages, and neither its title nor release date has been revealed yet.
