Avatar: Frontier of Pandora expands this December with From the Ashes

Ubisoft have announced that on December 19, the day after Avatar: Fire and Ash hits cinemas, players will be able to explore the new region of Pandora, with an all-new tale, characters and more.

From the Ashes takes place shortly after the events of the main game and takes you on the journey of So'lek, a battle-hardened Na'vi warrior from the Trr'ong clan. Ambushed and left for dead by the RDA and their new allies, the ruthless Ash clan, So'lek awakens to a world in flames and his Sarentu family scattered. Driven by grief and vengeance, he sets out to reunite with and protect his loved ones.

With ‘From the Ashes’, we wanted to push the boundaries of what players can experience in Pandora. This expansion delivers a darker, more personal story, enhanced immersion via third-person gameplay, and intense new combat mechanics that deepen the emotional and tactical stakes. We wanted to offer fans a thrilling new perspective on the Western Frontier, with deeper storytelling and more visceral gameplay
— Omar Bouali, Creative Director at Massive Entertainment

The expansion will cost players, if you already own the game you can just buy the DLC, but if you don’t yet own the game a special From the Ashes Edition will be released, which includes the base game as well.

On December 5th, a few weeks before this new expansion arrives, there will be a new update for the game that adds in a 3rd person camera option, along with new game+, perfect for those who have not played in a while to jump back in.

So the free update arrives on December 5 and the paid DLC arrives on December 19. The game is available now for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. For now, check out some of the amazing concept art below.
