You use resources you collect across the Western Frontier to craft new items, upgrade your current repertoire, and create new dishes to cook and eat for status effects and bonuses. I’m especially excited to see fauna light up with bioluminescence at night, thanks to the game’s day and night cycle. That translates to new resources for you to collect, and it looks like nature will overtake the abandoned machinery of outposts, turning once mechanical monstrosities into havens for wildlife and fauna to thrive again. These facilities pollute the areas they’re in, and destroying them allows nature to reclaim them. There’s aerial combat, too, so you can also take down RDA airships on the back of an Ikran.ĭeendfeldt says taking down outposts, which in the brief gameplay snippets I saw reminded me most of the enemy-ridden outposts in the Assassin’s Creed series that serve as miniature combative sandboxes, will have an immediate effect on the surrounding lands of Pandora. In this open-world version of Pandora, or more specifically, a brand-new region called the Western Frontier, players can ride mounts through large open fields down below, attack an RDA outpost, then hop on their Ikran and take to the skies, where they can fly through the nooks and crannies of the towering (and sometimes floating) mountains of Pandora. Game director Ditte Deenfeldt says you can customize your Ikran companion, from its head ornament to its color, as well as flying streamers and riding attire. That includes participating in the ceremonial trip to the Rookery, where you imprint on an Ikran, the flying mountain banshees of Pandora. Your first step on this new journey is to prove to your Na’vi tribe that you belong. Mechanically, this story setup means you’ll use Na’vi weapons, like long and short bows and spear throwers, and RDA weapons, like assault rifles and rocket launchers in first-person gameplay. You wake up 15 years later, finally ready to learn about your heritage and become one with Pandora, all while the RDA returns to try again to mine it for resources. However, before abandoning ship, The Ambassador Program is ordered to kill all kidnapped Na’vi, but your teacher refuses, instead locking you away to cryosleep.

But then the first movie’s events happen, driving the RDA off Pandora.

Instead of living as intended, The Ambassador Program trains your Na’vi in human ways.
