Summary
Fans ofUbisoft’s particular brand of open-world games are in for a treat becausethe company is offering a free trail for one of its most underrated recent games.

10 Important Features Avatar: Frontiers Of Pandora Doesn’t Fully Explain
It’s easy to miss a few things in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, which can end up making progression feel less rewarding if left uncorrected.
Why You Should Check Out Avatar: Frontiers Of Pandora
It’s Incredibly Fun To Blow Things Up As A Na’vi
While many have criticzedAvatar: Frontiers of Pandoraas being a reskinned version ofFar Cry, the game itself is remarkably different in several key aspects. There is some shared DNA under the hood:Players will spend a great deal of time liberating RDA outposts with a combination of stealth and explosive firefights, similar to the process that’s become synonymous withFar Cry. However when it comes toactually exploring Pandoraand upgrading one’s character,the gameplay is both different and refreshingly paced.
Frontiers of Pandora’s story is also rather compelling when it manages to break away from the general goal of repelling the RDA’s invasion of Pandora.Players take on the role of a Na’vi that’s been raised and brought up by humans with the express purpose of removing any sense of their personal culture or heritage. It’s a heavy concept, one that does shine in a few moments and certainly has more meat on its bones than mostFar Crygames; it helps that the game runs for around 20 hours, never outstaying its welcome.
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandoramay have closed outUbisoft’s 2023 with a bang but the company hasn’t been resting on its laurels.It kicked off 2024 with the excellentPrince of Persia: The Lost Crownand followed that up with this disappointingSkull and Bones. Later on in the year, open-world fans can look forward tothe highly-anticipatedStar Wars OutlawsandAssassin’s Creed: Shadows, the next installment in the long-running series.
