A new "Avatar" video game is in the works. Based on the 2009 sci-fi epic, the project is developed by Ubisoft in collaboration with Fox Interactive and the director's studio Lightstorm Entertainment. The game is heading to PC and consoles.

Back in 2009 shortly after the movie was released, Ubisoft released "Avatar: The Game" set two years before the events of the film. The plot for the new game is still unclear, but it "will continue to expand and deepen in the Avatar universe in exciting and innovative ways along with the films."

Editors' Pick

Sequels for the movie starring Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldana have since been in the works. Last year, Cameron revealed his plan to do four more movies for December 2018, 2020, 2022 and 2023 releases. Still, the first sequel hasn't yet gone into production.
