Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora has dropped a significant $30 from its MSRP in a brand new sale at Best Buy. It's down to just $39.99 for PS5 and Xbox, marking a serious saving on a game that came out just less than two months ago on December 7, 2023.
From what we can tell, this is the best price on the game at the moment, compared to the $50 pricepoint that is being offered at Amazon and Target. As they say, it can pay to be a patient gamer. If the $70 pricepoint was too steep for you, this new sale might just hit the sweet spot for many of us to pull the trigger on the latest entry into the famous franchise.
IGN reviewer Tristan Ogilvie gave the game a 7/10 in his review, stating: "Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora features a stunning alien world to explore with a refreshingly uncluttered approach to navigation, countless enemy bases to destroy and Na’vi clan sidequests to complete, and no shortage of exotic flora and fauna to harvest and hunt.
"However, its combat is pretty one-dimensional, its mission design is a bit on the repetitive side, and its environment is generally lacking in any major surprises beyond visual splendor, meaning that Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is a solid shooting adventure that’s more inside the box than truly out of this world.
A Ubisoft exec has recently stated that gamers will need to get “comfortable” not owning their games for subscription models to take off. This comes after the launch of Ubisofts revamped subscription model titled Ubisoft+ Premium -- which now costs $17.99/month and conceded with the recent launch of Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown.
Other gaming and tech deals to consider right now include Super Mario Bros. Wonder dropping down to just $49.99, alongside the 2023 Alienware Aurora RTX 4090 gaming PC for $3299.99 ($400 instant discount), and $100 off an Apple Watch Series 9 in the latest sales.
