Development
The game was first announced in March 2017 when Massive announced that their next major title would be based on James Cameron's Avatar.[2] In a 2021 investor call, it was revealed that the game was tentatively set to release in the 2022–2023 fiscal year (April 2022 to March 2023).[3] The game was titled Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora with a trailer at E3 2021 and announced for a release in 2022.[4] The game is set to tell a standalone story within the Avatar universe.[1]
The game was delayed in July 2022 from its initial 2022 release window to the 2023–2024 fiscal year (April 2023 to March 2024).[5]
