Patch 4 is the biggest update to Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game since launch! Two fighters totally rebuilt, a completely new look across the entire game, ranked play, a balance pass that reaches every character on the roster, and quality of life updates are included.

Avatar State Aang & Nightmare Korra, Reimagined

• Two legends, redrawn from the ground up with additional attacks and new super techniques that transform how they play.

• Everything from menus to modes has been redesigned. Character select, stage select, the in-match HUD, and every screen in between get a cleaner, bolder presentation.

• Avatar Road and Air Temple Island are now available to play outside of Story Mode!

• Competitive play returns rebuilt, with a ranked ladder built for the long climb, plus Spectating.

• Every character on the roster has been rebalanced. Every matchup is worth a fresh look.

• Single player gets deeper with Story Mode+, expanded Arcade content, and beginner friendly Lobbies.

• New tutorials and Combo Trials break the game down step by step, whether it’s your first match or your thousandth.

• Stages that were unique to Story Mode are now available in Local and Online VS Modes, music tracks are selectable right from stage select, and Training Mode gets an expanded set of options.

• Difficulty settings for Story Mode and Gallery Mode improvements.

Additionally, Gameplay Group International announced a new partnership with esports tournament organizer Tampa Never Sleeps for a weekly series of online AVATAR LEGENDS™: The Fighting Game tournaments. Each tournament will be hosted by notable Fighting Game Community (FGC) personalities, with a $5,000 prize pool up for grabs.
