Pretty par for the course for a fighting game though, no?
Love your username bro, very clever 👏😊
What fighting game of nowadays does not work like that?
I am not an Avatar fan, but I will caution Avatar fans that Nickelodeon games are historically made for shoestring budgets; basically whatever they find in the couch cushions. As a fighting game fan, there's enough left to the imagination here that this game could be literally anything, and the developer has no other games to its name on Steam.
Watch the Announcement Trailer for Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game (working title), an upcoming action fighting game based on the beloved Avatar franchise, developed by Gameplay Group International in collaboration with Paramount.
Nickelodeon isn't mentioned and I don't believe they've been a part of Avatar's new development studio or creative direction for awhile.
While I do see a generic game, it's worth blaming the right people.
It's a Nickelodeon property and their stamp is on the end credits card. But yeah, maybe the money is flowing in a different direction for this one, and perhaps Avatar has a better shot than All-Star Brawl.
You're right, Nickelodeon is still a part of Avatar. When the owners created their own studio I thought they took the IP with them, but I guess only going forward.
I don't trust Nickelodeon to get this right.
Actually, this developer must be that new group made to buy out the fighting game properties from Maximum Entertainment (Diesel Legacy and Them's Fightin' Herds). I saw that there was a post with a commitment to fix up Them's Fightin' Herds with some of the original dev team, but that was from a post that was taken down before I got to view it myself. Sounds like the page went live before it was supposed to. But if you're a fan of TFH, like @missingno@fedia.io , it might be worth keeping an eye on this whenever the official press release is back up. Myself, I really enjoyed Diesel Legacy, but I don't think that game is going to get anything new going forward.
At one point MaxEnt had announced an Avatar fighting game, but then silently canceled it when everything imploded. So this appears to be a revival of that.
Over a month ago we were told that TFH's IP had been sold to a new owner, and they'd have an announcement within a month. Announcement still hasn't happened, but the publisher on Steam was silently changed to Gameplay Group International, along with Diesel Legacy's.
Sounds shady, TBH. I wonder who they are and why was this deal done in the dark. Every piece of info I found online was deliberately vague.
I guess only time will tell.
WHY A FIGHTING GAME!!!!
they could make a game about pro-bending!!! and other actvities/sports in the avatar universe
seriously a 3v3 pro-bending game would be awesome
Avatar Legends is already a TTRPG. Why would they reuse the name instead of using any other second word?
Avatar Legends is the new name for the franchise overall. I suppose it's to differentiate from Cameron's Avatar.
They're really milking the franchise for all it's worth...
Maybe they'll put the Korra Game back on Steam at least.
Another Avatar sized bomb. It’s doubtful that Avatar fans are genuinely interested in that genre beyond wanting to see their favorite characters on screen.
I mean, the screen adaptations are all disasters in themselves, so there's not a good track record there either.
Personally, I'd rather it just be left as a great animated show and to see companies stop trying to milk an IP where the show ended 17 years ago. We really don't need cash-grab mobile games, fighting games, mediocre beat-em-up games, or either of the live-action adaptations.
But what about a Magic: the Gathering set?
Isn't this mostly in opposition to what the in world avatar would support? Most of the time they tried to find a peaceful solution. The only thing that came close to fights between non enemies were the pro bending matches in Korra and they did not attack each other but worked through the disks as medium
