Romance was a fascinating and awkward spectacle in the extended cut of 2009's Avatar. Gamers looking to explore the Frontiers of Pandora as a Na'vi warrior may be wondering if there's more to the game than combat. In this guide, we'll answer an important question - does Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora feature romance?
Ubisoft's titles have a non-committal relationship with romance. Some of their titles - namely Assassin's Creed Odyssey - let players form romantic bonds with characters, while others like the Far Cry series prefer to stay focused on combat.

Does Avatar Frontiers of Pandora have romance options?
No, you cannot form romantic relationships in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora.
It's a decision that upset many hopeful players, as romance (and seeing how an alien race like the Na'vi approach it) has historically been a large part of the Avatar films. We've also seen 2023's other titles (namely Baldur's Gate 3) use romance as a great way to explore characters' histories and personalities.
Romantic relationships may not be available, but players are expected to progress their relationships with the game's many Na'vi clans. If you were interested in Frontiers of Pandora to learn insights into their culture, completing their unique quests is a good way to go about it.
While Ubisoft as a publisher has dabbled in providing romance options, it's worth noting that Frontiers of Pandora is actually developed by the same studio that made The Division, Massive Entertainment. Satisfying gameplay is clearly their focus, but we hope their next titles (which notably include Star Wars Outlaws) feature relationships that go slightly deeper.
