 The world of Avatar has always had plenty of reasons to throw a punch, kick, blast of fire or well-placed gust of air.

Now, Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game brings those abilities into a proper 1v1 fighter, giving fans the chance to settle their differences with some of the most recognisable characters from the Avatar universe.Following its earlier release on PlayStation 5, PC and Nintendo Switch, the fighter is now available on Xbox Series X|S and PC, with Xbox Play Anywhere support. At £24.99 for the Standard Edition, it offers a colourful take on the fighting game formula that should have something for both newcomers and players who like to dig into the finer details of their fighters.At A GlanceGame: Avatar Legends: The Fighting GameFormats: Xbox Series X|S, PC, PlayStation 5, Nintendo SwitchXbox Play Anywhere: YesPrice: £24.99 (Standard Edition)Deluxe Edition: £41.74Step Into The Avatar ArenaAt its heart, Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game is about putting the series’ distinctive bending styles into a competitive fighting game setting.

The roster draws from Avatar: The Last Airbender, The Legend of Korra and the wider Avatar universe, with each character built around their own fighting style and abilities.The presentation is a big part of the appeal too. Rather than attempting to recreate the shows in 3D, the game uses hand-drawn 2D animation to give its characters and arenas a style that feels much closer to their animated roots.Matches are built around fast movement and elemental attacks, with players able to use Flow to dash, evade and reposition before building Energy Points through skilled play.

Those points can then be spent on enhanced special moves and powerful Super Arts. It isn’t just about throwing attacks at random, either. Support characters add another layer to proceedings, with three available options to accompany your chosen fighter and provide abilities that can complement different playstyles.Plenty To Do Beyond VersusThere is more here than simply picking a favourite character and jumping into a fight.The original Story Mode offers a new adventure outlined by show creators Michael Dante DiMartino and Tim Hedrick, while Arcade Mode provides individual storylines for the playable characters.Then there is Training Mode, which should be particularly useful for anyone wanting to take their bending skills a little more seriously.
