There was also a turn-based strategy mini-game in there! It was certainly ambitious, and it definitely looked gorgeous by 2009 standards. It was 3D compatible, starred reprises from Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, Michelle Rodriguez, and Giovanni Ribisi, allowed you to choose how you looked out of 20 options, and it had two different campaigns. You play as Ryder, newly arrived on Pandora in a third-person shooter prequel to the movie. The PC & console version was where Ubisoft put its big bucks.
It’s a third-person game which sees you trying to avoid being spotted while taking out soldiers, and is filled to bursting with quick time events. You play as Rai'uk, a Na’vi who is after revenge on the humans who murdered his clan. For instance, you have limited camera control on the PSP, and the Wii version is compatible with the Balance Board and MotionPlus. The Wii & PSP versions are the same, but of course have their differences. Chronologically, it takes place before the other games, since humans have only recently arrived on Pandora. It’s played from a top-down viewpoint, and you have to use the stylus to move Nok around, while the top screen shows you the map. In the DS version, you play as Nok, a child Na’vi who wants to find out more about the sky people. The game had 15 levels of third-person platforming and shooting/hitting things, with the familiar, simple, control scheme that touchscreen games used to be known for. In the iOS/Android game you control Captain Ryan Lorenz - the very first Avatar soldier - and wind up aiding the Na’vi against the RDA. Mobile had one, DS had a second, PSP and Wii had the third, and everything else had the fourth. But there were four different versions produced. Avatar: The Game came out on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, PC, Wii, PlayStation Portable, DS, iOS and Android. If you just read the Wikipedia entry about James Cameron's Avatar: The Game, then you’re very much missing out.
Presumably it’s going to be released to tie into Avatar 2 when it comes out in 2022, but details have been light so far. In case you missed the announcement during E3 2021, Ubisoft released a teaser trailer for Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. It also came out on more platforms than I initially thought. Though it turned out to be quite a journey that I went on since I’ve never seen Avatar. Well, I’m back to talk about how I hope that the upcoming Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora isn’t as bad as James Cameron's Avatar: The Game from 2009. Sure, there are two trains of thought on how well that aged.
