Avatar is the video game based on the James Cameroon movie of the same name. The game can be played in 3D on the capable consoles, and earlier we reported that Avatar: The Game would be coming to India in December, while the prices and exact release dates were not clear. Now an e-xpress representative has sent word of the release dates and pricing of Avatar: The Game.
Avatar: The Game is expected to be in stores across India sometime next week, and will come for a price of Rs. 2,499 for the Xbox 360 and PS3 consoles, Rs. 1,499 for the PSP and Rs. 699 for the PC. The e-xpress rep has confirmed to us that specific release dates for the game are not fixed, but the game should be in stores by the end of next week, and that the game is expected to release on all consoles simultaneously.
Avatar: The Game takes players to Pandora, a world far different from anything they’ve ever seen. Chosen to participate in the Avatar Program, an unclear scientific initiative launched by the RDA Corporation mining Pandora for minerals, players will learn to control or ‘pilot’ their own avatar, which is a hybrid of their DNA and that of the indigenous species of Pandora. Players must choose to either battle for the RDA or join forces with the Na’vi in their struggle against the RDA.
