The new Avatar game has a graphics preset so ‘extremely difficult to run’ you’re probably Na’vi gonna turn it on
December 7, 2023
I don’t remember much from the hit 2009 movie Avatar, but I do remember that the main reason they even bothered to create big blue boy suits to explore the moon of Pandora was to collect a rare mineral known as unobtanium. And you bet unobtanium is making a comeback for the new game set in the Avatar universe, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, but not entirely in the way you might expect.
I’m sure there’s plenty of references to unobtanium in the Avatar game’s story, but this super rare mineral key to Earth’s continued existence (I’m googling the story as I go) also shows up in the game’s settings menu. It’s the nickname given to the graphics quality mode that is so demanding to run on current hardware you probably shouldn’t even bother trying, or so say Ubisoft studio Massive Entertainment.
