The Sky Breaker DLC for Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora will be released across all platforms on July 16, where the fight against the RDA reignites after an interruption to the great festival of games.

Players will be taken to a new region, The Heart of the Plains in the Upper Plains, with new environments including the Prism Fields, Feathered Grasslands, and Stone Rapids.

A new enemy archetype, the AMP Defender, also makes its debut with an indestructible shield that will test your aim and combat abilities, alongside new RDA lieutenants with AMP Suits that provide additional firepower.

Timed challenges will also be featured during the festival of the games, and you’ll be able to level up to master crafter status, while the maximum rank will increase to 25 with the addition of new ways to spend skill points.

Alongside the DLC content, a title update will also drop on the same day, adding a 40 FPS quality mode on Xbox Series X|S and PS5, adjusted combat difficulty, and more.

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora’s Story Pack One: The Sky Breaker is included for no additional cost for those who purchased the Gold and Ultimate editions of the game, as well as those with a Ubisoft+ subscription.

The Season Pass for Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora also includes access to a second story pack, Secrets of the Spires, which is due to be released later this year.
