Avatar Legends The Fighting Game has a store page on Steam, and people are wondering if this game was a cancelled project that never saw the light of day. There’s a ton of cancellations that have been happening in the industry, especially after the massive layoffs that we witnessed with Xbox. Gameplay Group International is a team of people who have took it upon themselves to prevent this from happening, resurrecting old titles and bringing life to cancelled ones. Their mission is to promote game archival and they also respect the ethos of movements like Stop Killing Games.
Avatar Legends The Fighting Game coming soon
There’s still no release date for this game, but the group seems to be new too. After they have acquired Them’s Fightin’ Herds, it seems that there has been an uptick of activity and their plans became more ambitious. Reviving games that are cancelled is no joke, because trying to work on projects without the input of the original team can be a futile task since it does not respect the vision the creators wanted. However, I want to have faith, as the heart of this new company is in the right place.
Avatar Legends The Fighting Game looks stunning, as the animations are hand drawn and everything about the game seems to scream quality so far. We can hope that the release date comes soon, as there seems to be a resurgence in the fighting game genre lately with tons of unexpected news. Fighting games never die as long as there’s a community behind them, no matter how small, even stuff like Bloody Roar is still being played today in EVO events. Thanks to the ability to play locally, fighting games are a genre that is resilient to the eventual downfall of online services that shackle many games. Avatar Legends The Fighting Game is shaping up to be a hit.
