The Avatar RPG has been put in an iceberg.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
Looks like the disappointing streak of video games in the Avatar universe continues. As first reported by\u00a0IGN<\/em>, the AAA role-playing game set to take place in the Avatar franchise is no longer in production. Shawn Kittelsen, a senior vice president and head of creative and production at Paramount Games Studio, told\u00a0IGN<\/em> that the title wasn’t in production when Paramount Games Studio was created, which was a result of combining the gaming divisions of both Paramount and Skydance following\u00a0the massive merger.<\/p>\n Notably, Kittelsen told\u00a0IGN<\/em> that the Avatar RPG “was not in production,” but hinted that it “doesn’t mean you won’t get a AAA Avatar game at some point, but it might come in a different iteration.” That’s not very promising, but the bar is already set pretty low when it comes to Avatar video games. The now-paused Avatar RPG dates back to late 2024 when Paramount announced a big-budget RPG based on the hit cartoon series. At the time, Paramount said it would be “the biggest video game in franchise history” featuring “an all-new never-before-seen Avatar.” While the universe was the same, the game was going to delve into a time period thousands of years before the events of\u00a0Avatar: The Last Airbender<\/em>.<\/p>\n On the flip side,\u00a0Avatar\u00a0Legends: The Fighting Game<\/em> has been attracting a lot of interest from fans of the animated series and those in the fighting game community. The 1v1 2D fighting game was pushed back from its July 2 release date to July 23, but has been building up more hype by introducing Azula and Kyoshi as playable characters.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n The Avatar RPG has been put in an iceberg.
