Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora Goes Gold

Ubisoft's Avatar game is poised to hit its early December launch date.

Ubisoft has shared that its upcoming open-world game Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora has now gone gold. Initially announced all the way back in 2017, Frontiers of Pandora has been in the works for a prolonged period of time and was previously slated to arrive in 2022. After a lengthy delay pushed the game back, though, Ubisoft has now confirmed that its Avatar project will be launching on schedule in the coming month. 

Shared on social media, Ubisoft informed eager fans that the initial development on Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora has now been completed. This means that the game has "gone gold" and will begin the process of certification and shipping. Most importantly, when games go gold, it also informs fans that any future delays will likely not be coming to pass. As such, Frontiers of Pandora isn't in danger of slipping to 2024 and will arrive in just a few short weeks on December 7.

Alongside Assassin's Creed Mirage, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is one of Ubisoft's biggest releases of 2023. It also represents one of the first titles that Ubisoft has created solely for current-gen platforms which include PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. With the power of its upgraded Snowdrop engine, Frontiers of Pandora is likely going to be one of the prettiest titles that Ubisoft has released in quite some time and could be a major hit for the publisher.

"Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is a first-person, action-adventure game set in the never-before-seen Western Frontier of Pandora.
