Updated pages on various online shops may have just revealed the release date of the nextAvatar: The Last Airbendergame. Now isn’t necessarily a good time to be a fan of the 2000s Nickelodeon cartoon. While the original series is still a classic,many are already critical of theAvatar: The Last Airbenderlive-action showcurrently in the works at Netflix. On the other hand, there may be some hope on the horizon for those that want more of Aang and his friends.

Further, last month a new game, based on the original series, was revealed to be in the works with developer Bamtang Games. TitledAvatar: The Last Airbender: Quest for Balance, the game looks to be a mix of action and puzzles and will feature both single-player and co-op modes.

Recently, the Nintendo eShop, PlayStation Store, and Microsoft Store all updated their pages for the upcomingAvatar: The Last Airbendergame to include a release date of May 27, 2025. The change was originally noted and reported by gaming journalists regarding Nintendo’s storefront, but it has since been confirmed that Microsoft and Sony have also listed the same launch date. While neither Bamtang nor publisher GameMill Entertainment have issued any official statement at this time, the fact that all three companies are suddenly applying the same release date toQuest for Balancewould seem to indicate that this information is reliable.
The news of the upcoming title launching so soon should be a welcome development for gamers and, especially, for those hoping to recapture the old magic of the series. Some have argued thatQuest for Balanceshould become a stepping stone for a new game franchise. Now, fans won’t have to wait long to find out if these hopes come to fruition. Past games based onAvatar: The Last Airbenderhaven’t always been great, but this new one looks like it could potentially break that streak and remind everyone why the show was such a hit.
Not everything is positive in theAvatarfandom at the moment. Between concerns about the live-action show and reports that theupcomingAvatar: The Last Airbenderis replacing some original voice actors, there’s plenty of reason for pessimism. Still, withQuest for Balanceon the horizon and looking solid, fans have a reason to look forward to September.
Avatar The Last Airbender: Quest for Balanceis rumored to release on May 19, 2025, on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
