Well here’s something that we weren’t expecting. Fresh out of New York Comic Con 2025, we got our first peek at Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game (working title), an upcoming one-on-one fighter heading to Switch 2 in Summer 2026.
We don’t know all that much about what this one will have in store just yet — heck, the title will almost certainly change in the next 12 months — but the pre-alpha footage is looking pretty sweet.
Avatar Legends will see a roster of fighters from the immensely popular Last Airbender and Legend of Korra series face off in the ring. We can expect a good bit of elemental combat to keep things feeling fresh, and there’s set to be a line-up of support characters for an extra pinch of customisation.
Throw in a single player campaign for good measure, and wrap it all up in a hand-drawn visual style reminiscent of the original anime, and we’ve got a pretty interesting looking fighter on our hands.
Here’s a rundown of the game’s key features and a handful of screenshots from its Steam page:
– 12 Playable Characters at launch, with many more released via Season Model
– Selectable support characters influence your fighting style and grant special moves
– Unique “Flow System” w/Movement Centric Gameplay
– Single Player Campaign w/Original Narrative
– Combo TrialsGallery Mode
– Best in Class Net Code and Cross Play
There’s still a lot more for us to learn about this one in the coming months, but the promise of a Switch 2 release has us intrigued.
