Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora Title Update 2.0 – Introducing Third Person and NG+

The Third Person Update for Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora™ will be available tomorrow (December 5th) at 9AM CET / 8 AM UTC / 00:00 PT for all players! As you return to Pandora, share your journey with us through in-game photo mode shots – use the hashtag #AvatarFrontiers!

Our 2-year anniversary is almost here! We’re hoping you’ll celebrate alongside us by diving back into the Western Frontier, in third person or New Game+. With Title Update 2.0, all players can enjoy the game from a third person view, letting you see the world from a new perspective! You can switch between third person and first person easily – by default:

• Press the J key on PC.

• Hold the touchpad on PS5.

• Hold the “View” button on Xbox Series X/S.

Alongside third person, you’ll also be able to experience Frontiers of Pandora’s main story in New Game+. When you replay the main story in New Game+, you carry over all of your gear and skills from your regular (completed) playthrough, and get access to a new skill tree for the Sarentu, as well as higher level gear, which you will need to defeat New Game+’s stronger enemies. To access New Game+:

• Load a saved game where you’ve completed the final mission in the main story (“Last Strike”).

• Open the Options menu – you should see a “New Game+” option at the top of the menu.

• After selecting “New Game+”, you will be prompted to select a Save Slot which will become the New Game+ save slot. Once that’s done, your New Game+ journey will begin.
