Bringing the rich worlds of Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra to life, AVATAR LEGENDS™: The Fighting Game offers dynamic combat and expressive bending mechanics built for both fighting game veterans and casual fans alike.

Players who pre-order will receive access to the closed beta running from July 2-5, gold color variants for Aang, Korra, Zuko, Katara, Toph and Sokka, as well as the Samurai Appa support character skin. Players who purchase or pre-order the Deluxe Edition will also receive a digital art book, music soundtrack, unique HUDs and the Year 1 Pass, which includes Bolin, Ty Lee, Lin Beifong, Uncle Iroh and an additional character to be decided through a limited-time community vote.

The limited-time community vote will be open exclusively to fans who pre-order AVATAR LEGENDS™: The Fighting Game. Beginning in late summer, eligible players will be able to vote between five fan-favorite potential characters to join the roster: Amon, Kuriva, Bumi, Asami or Tenzin. More information on each character can be found below:

  • Amon - The calm and mysterious leader of the Equalists, Amon disrupts the balance of Republic City by stripping benders of their abilities.
  • Kuvira - Driven by a need for absolute control, Kuvira is a disciplined metalbender who unites a fractured Earth Kingdom into a powerful, militarized empire.
  • Bumi - Longtime fan-favorite King Bumi of Omashu masks his tactical brilliance and unparalleled earthbending mastery beneath a wildly eccentric and unpredictable personality.
  • Asami - Utilizing her brilliant engineering mind and cutting-edge technology, Asami Sato proves herself as a formidable non-bending fighter and a highly dependable ally to Korra’s Team Avatar.
  • Tenzin - As Korra's wise but heavily pressured mentor, Tenzin bears the immense weight of his father Aang’s legacy while dedicating himself to preserving and rebuilding the Air Nation.

The Standard Edition of AVATAR LEGENDS™: The Fighting Game is set to launch July 23 for $29.99 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch™, and PC via Steam, with full cross-play support available at launch. The physical edition, published by PM Studios, arrives later this year alongside the Nintendo Switch 2 version, with both Standard and Deluxe Editions available for collectors and fans.
