For those unfamiliar with the game, Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game is a 1v1 fighting game featuring characters from the Avatar franchise. It features hand-drawn 2D animation that follows the aesthetic of the series, along with proprietary rollback netcode and full cross-play across platforms. The game was first revealed at New York Comic-Con 2025 and will launch at $29.99 for the Standard Edition.

While the launch date has moved, players who pre-order on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam will still get early access through a cross-play-supported beta running from July 2 to 5, which lines up with the original release date.
