Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game is a fast-paced 1v1 fighter where you battle as your favorite characters from the Avatar franchise!

Featuring hand-drawn 2D animation true to the series’ roots, proprietary rollback netcode, and full cross-play for smooth, competitive gameplay.

Gameplay Group International and PM Studios, in collaboration with Paramount and Avatar Studios, unveiled Sokka, one of the pivotal roster additions for Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game.

Sokka was destined to stand apart. Known for his sharp sarcasm and love for delicious meat, at his core. Sokka is a courageous and resourceful strategist who proves that creativity is just as powerful as bending.

From designing advanced war balloons to orchestrating a daring prison rescue, he is motivated by a fierce loyalty to his loved ones. He relies on his mastery of the boomerang and sword, as well as sharp wits, to navigate a challenging world, ultimately discovering his own destiny as a world-class inventor and swordsman.
