About the Game

According to VGC, the Reddit user Interesting-Squash81 shared this unfortunate news on the game's subreddit. They received their copy of Ubisoft's open-world Avatar shooter early and were excited to play. However, the game would not progress beyond the title screen.

Pre-order Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora

You can pre-order the game from Amazon, Best Buy, or GameStop.

Attempts to Play the Game Offline

Interesting-Squash81 tried several tricks such as changing the PS5's internal clock and launching the game in offline mode, but nothing worked. The game seemed to require an online check—possibly DRM—to play. Other players reported similar issues.

Internet Connection Requirement

It is not clear whether this online check is related to a day-one patch or release time verification. Regardless, an internet connection is needed to play the game. This requirement is indicated on the game's box.

The Impact of DRM

DRM, typically used to prevent piracy, ties the license of the purchased item to the platform it was bought on to confirm ownership. Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is not the first game to require an internet connection, but it raises questions about the nature of media ownership today. It also potentially excludes players who don't have reliable internet access.

About the Game's Story

The game presents a standalone story set in a previously unexplored part of Pandora within director James Cameron's larger Avatar universe. Players take on the role of a Na'vi to protect the world from human threats. The game will be released on December 7 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
