Game Description

Become the ultimate biological weapon in this game based on James Cameron's tangled sci-fi epic. The giant RDA corporation wants to harvest a rare mineral from the planet Pandora. The only thing in the way is the Na'vi, a resilient native people. To get what it wants, RDA has created the ultimate weapon - the Avatar.

With your DNA entrenched on both sides of the conflict, you must choose where your allegiance lies.
