Avatar: The Way of Water , the long-awaited sequel by the director James Cameron, has been a huge success. So far, it's the third highest-grossing film in history, surpassed only by Avengers: Endgame and Avatar itself.

This absolutely drives exploration in the game, and the environment design of Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is clearly top-notch. While running around the forests, we encountered beneficial and detrimental flora.

The Avatar films have very distinct main characters. Although the traditions and customs of Pandora play a major role, these story elements always revolve around Jake Sully, Neytiri and their respective families and friends. The Way of Water introduces new characters such as Jake and Neytiri's children , along with other important humans and Na'vi. Frontiers of Pandora could bring back these characters, allowing players to interact with them.
