In the upcoming role-playing game, we take on the role of an avatar never seen before, one that lives thousands of years before the events of the TV series. Together with the avatar, we master the four elements, fight alongside companions, and influence the balance of the world with our decisions.
As the developers and publishers explain, the title will present a mixture of familiar and new elements of the franchise, allowing players to immerse themselves in the world.
