Thanks to the new installment, the planet Pandora has been expanded even further with the inclusion of new tribes, creatures and lore, something that could be reflected in the video game. While James Cameron is confident in Ubisoft's vision for Avatar , the upcoming open-world game has even more to work with since the release of The Way of Wat

On Pandora, the Na'vi are separated into several clans scattered around the planet. While only a few have been shown across the two films, there are actually plenty more that have either only been shown briefly or not at all to fans.

Playstation fans always have something to look forward to in the form of the awesome exclusives that Sony always has in development, and few games come close to God of War: Ragnarok in terms of anticipation.

Each Na'vi clan varies in several ways, and one of those ways is the skills that each has mastered. The Na'vi clans each have their own strengths, often derived from a combination of their surrounding environment and their unique cultures. The Omatikaya clan, primarily featured in the first Avatar film, are expert weavers and can create brilliant textiles. Avatar: The Way of Water introduced the Metkkayina clan, who are expert swimm


Just like in both films, the main antagonist in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora will be the human-led Resources Development Administration, or the RDA . Having traveled to Pandora decades before the events of the game, the RDA has the goal of exploiting the natural resources of Pandora. Naturally, the many Na'vi clans have banded together to protect their h


While Pandora is home to many plants and animals, the primary inhabitants of the planet are the Na'vi people. The Na'vi are spread out throughout the planet in several clans , and players will be coming into contact with several brand-new clans in the game.

A new Avatar game has also been in the works for a while, with Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora hoping to capitalize on the series' revitalized interest. Although James Cameron is trusting Ubisoft's own vision on the project , the upcoming open-world game has even more to work with since the release of The Way of Water. Here are a few key elements from the film we hope to


Although the game can learn a lot from the movie, it should not be limited to that either. Often, movie tie-in games are overly attached to the story of the film without bringing anything new to the table, and are quickly forgotten.
