You kept asking, Ubisoft answered: you can now play in third person in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora

Today, Ubisoft released a highly anticipated update to Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. This update adds a third person camera option for the game.

You can now experience the adventure on the Western Frontier of Pandora in third person, giving you a new perspective on the world around you, and allowing you to see your character and equipped cosmetics as you play. The development team at Massive Entertainment reworked animations, controls, camera systems, and more to make the new perspective feel as seamless as possible.

After downloading the free update, the game will automatically be in first-person, but you can swap to third-person with the hold of a button. At any point during your playthrough, you can seamlessly switch between first and third-person perspectives.

The third-person perspective in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is just the latest of several quality of life updates the game has received since launch. Others include the revamped Hunter’s Guide, which allows you to mark favorite items and the addition of an “undiscovered items” filter to help you find unknown resources as you play; rebalanced combat; and a smoother 40 FPS mode.

This update also adds a New Game+ option.

With New Game+, you can replay Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora from the beginning, while keeping your inventory and skills from your original playthrough. You'll face tougher enemies, but get a new skill tree and more powerful gear to rise to the challenge. Additionally, the map will be fully revealed from the start of your playthrough with New Game+.

New Game+ will become available once you have completed the main story in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. It is only available to use on the main game, and not on The Sky Breaker and Secrets of the Spires story packs.
