Ubisoft Unveils Expansion for Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora
In an exciting announcement today, Ubisoft revealed that Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora will launch a much-anticipated expansion named From the Ashes on December 19, 2025. This new content invites players back to the captivating world of Pandora, specifically the western frontier, and introduces a gripping narrative that coincides with the theatrical release of James Cameron’s latest film, Avatar: Fire and Ash.
The expansion promises a markedly darker tone compared to the base game, as showcased in the newly released trailer. Ubisoft has confirmed that it will integrate new gameplay features, including a third-person mode set to debut on December 5, 2025, just two weeks prior to the expansion’s launch.
A Revenge Mission Unfolds
From the Ashes places players in the shoes of So’lek, a Na’vi warrior consumed by vengeance after the Ash clan forms an alliance with the RDA. Following an ambush that leaves him separated from his comrades, So’lek awakens to a burning desire for retribution. His journey weaves through betrayal, family loyalty, and the quest for justice against overwhelming odds.
“With From the Ashes, we wanted to push the boundaries of what players can experience on Pandora, ” stated Omar Bouali, the creative director at Massive Entertainment.“This expansion delivers a darker, more personal story, enhanced immersion via both the first and third-person gameplay, and intense new combat mechanics that deepen the emotional and tactical stakes. We wanted to offer fans a thrilling new perspective on the Western Frontier, with deeper storytelling and more visceral gameplay.”
Josua Izzo, executive vice president of franchise development at Lightstorm Entertainment, commented on the collaboration, emphasizing the opportunity to expand the universe in innovative ways.“This new expansion, From the Ashes, will release simultaneously with the theatrical launch of Avatar: Fire and Ash — a film that delves into the darker aspects of Pandora and introduces the Ash People. We’re excited for Avatar fans to explore these untold stories through new interactive adventures, ” he noted.
As fans gear up for the cinematic experience, they can also prepare to delve into the expansion. Following a visit to see Avatar: Fire and Ash in theaters, players will have the chance to immerse themselves in From the Ashes right at home on PC or console.
“We can’t wait for fans to experience this new chapter in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, ” added Luigi Priore, vice president and general manager of Disney and Pixar Games.“From the Ashes continues the journey of Na’vi resistance warrior So’lek and showcases how Disney and Pixar Games collaborate on crafting original narratives set in the worlds that resonate with players.”
Pricing and Availability
The expansion will retail for $24.99 USD. For those who haven’t yet purchased Frontiers of Pandora, Ubisoft offers a bundled edition titled From the Ashes for a combined price of $39.99, which includes both the base game and the expansion.
