Forget Aang and Korra – a new Avatar emerges from the mists of time, in the upcoming AAA game. Developed by Saber Interactive, fresh off their work on Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, this untitled RPG plunges players thousands of years into the past, long before the familiar faces of the beloved animated series.

Instead of revisiting established storylines, this game promises a completely original narrative centered around a brand-new Avatar. Players will embody this ancient figure, mastering all four elements and navigating the complexities of maintaining balance in a world untouched by the events of The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra.

While details remain scarce, the involvement of Avatar Studios, the division of Nickelodeon Animation led by series creators Bryan Konietzko and Michael Dante DiMartino, offers a glimmer of hope for a faithful and compelling experience. The game’s setting raises intriguing questions: Could we witness the dawn of the Avatar cycle itself, perhaps even glimpsing the era of Wan, the very first Avatar?

This isn’t the first foray of the Avatar universe into gaming, but the pedigree of Saber Interactive and the promise of a truly original story set in a distant past offer a tantalizing prospect. While previous Avatar games have met with varying degrees of success, this new project seems to be aiming for a more ambitious scope, promising a deep dive into the rich lore and a chance to forge a new chapter in the history of the Avatar. The success of this game could be the key to unlocking the true potential of the Avatar universe in interactive entertainment.

12-20-24 – A Better Game Than That Is In Development. Going On Almost A Year Now. The Game Called “Bend”

Fire, earth, water, air, nature,  spirit, gravity, & shadow so far are the official character classes, followed by several more special bending variations for each designated element. Earth benders for instance, they have 3 variations there’s lava bending, sand bending, metal bending, ( AKA Fact will basically have a Magneto character that functions exactly how you think it would, Marvel Rival’s magneto is just disappointing, I’m not a fan of the game at all, I miss my Overwatch1 ). There will be dynamic bending & there’s already some unique movement mechanics not implemented in anywhere. Already have sliding just like Apex, and climbing & mantling. 1 big official server. 1 big ever changing open world, followed by a pretty high # count of very specific ranked game modes to que for. There will be tournaments. There will be houses & vehicles. There will be game item & real $ game staking as an option. Plenty of stats/records/achieves. A great social channel/shoutout & I’d like a hunger games- like thing. Very cool custom skins / effects / rewards. Think of this game being like 10 different games into 1. & If I had to say the era time like how the new triple A Avatar game says thousands of years in the past or whatever, I’d say Bend game likely takes place thousands of years in the future. – Future > Past. Future is better.

— It will be subscription only to play and it will be incredibly impressive if no players. Designing a game that I’ll love to play regardless of players or not, there will be an interesting ai bot system in place. Player # count will always be displayed bc games should do that naturally, nothing to hide, makes me feel better just knowing, low or high. This post is meant to be vague, I’d love to hype it up more and post allllll the exciting things to come there’s just no way anyone copies all this work, but just to be on safe side. There’s just no way that triple A Avatar game or other games are able to compete.

– I really love that I got one of the greatest animation & other things specialists making this all possible. I couldn’t of received a more perfect specialist. How awful Ashes of Creation’s game animations are and they’ve nearly worked on it for 10 yrs and had the nerve to charge ppl like $300 to beta test it so much it’s funny weird. Anyways. You’re the mvp master engineer designer. I’m just the student with the ideas. Open to having a few more hands on deck in the future maybe but so far good progress has been made everyday. I’m so sick and tired of every game out right now, I have complaints for all of them.
