Paramount Game Studios and Saber Interactive have announced that they are developing a brand new Avatar: The Last Airbender RPG, which will follow an all-new story developed closely with Avatar Studios.
What we know about the new Avatar video game
The currently untitled game is described as a “new AAA video game” and will allow players to take on the role of an all-new, never-before-seen Avatar. The game is set thousands of years in the past, so it’s unclear if it will have any connection whatsoever to the well-known characters from the original series.
The title will see players mastering all four elements, “engage in dynamic combat alongside companions, and experience the challenges and decisions that come with being the keeper of balance in the world,” according to the game’s announcement.
As of now, no release information or any other plot info has been shared, aside from the fact that the game will include “both familiar and new elements” to the world of Avatar.
“We know loyal fans of Avatar: The Last Airbender have been eager for more stories that bring them into the universe of the show, and through gaming, we’re able to expand the world-building and allow fans to experience the new content in a completely immersive way,” said Doug Rosen, SVP, Games and Emerging Media at Paramount. “Saber Interactive has a proven track record in bringing IP-based games to life, and we are excited to co-fund this AAA title alongside them and let fans experience this world first-hand.”
Avatar: The Last Airbender originally premiered in 2005 on Nickelodeon and quickly became a massive success. The animated series has gone on to become one of the most well-regarded in television history and has been spun off a book series and a sequel series, as well as live-action movie and TV adaptations. An animated film based on the project is also in the works from Paramount Pictures and tentatively set to release on January 30, 2026.
