Avatar: Reckoning’s development studio will separate from its publisher and take over full operations of the game, though it remains optimistic about a 2024 release (press release via PoBear Plays ).
The “MMO shooter’s” studio, Archosaur Games, a China-based mobile game studio, is separating the project from its publisher, Tencent subsidiary Level Infinite. Development remains ongoing via the studio.
The press release also says that testing will begin for the game in January 2024 in mainland China, and that the team hopes to release the game in the first half of the year, with an eventual global rollout.
A limited closed beta test was run back in June 2023, with a two-week delay between the announced date and the actual beta. The test was only available for Android players in the Philippines; there’s been little news since. Testing concluded in August of 2023, with plans to return to testing in 2024.
Level Infinite is also offering refunds to anyone who participated in this recent beta test and made in-game purchases “to ensure a smooth transition and to show appreciation for your support.” Players who wish to claim these refunds will have all requests approved through the Google Play Store refund system through their purchase history’s “Report a problem” option. Players were already offered refunds of items purchased during the beta, but it seems the news expedited this process. Refunds will be available until February 12, 2024.
Originally, the game was announced for a 2022 release in January of that year, though progress seems to have been minimal. The Disney-licensed game promises a variety of playstyles, including single-player missions, co-op, and PvP modes, with Na’vi players taking on Earth-based troops who look to continue to steal resources from their planet.

A slump in smartphone demand did not shake Apple’s resolve or the sales momentum of its iPhones because, according to the latest data, the California-based giant achieved one milestone that it took the firm 13 years to fulfill ever since it launched the first iPhone, and that is overtaking its closest adversary, Samsung, in global smartphone shipments.
Rebel Wolves, the studio founded by a few of the CD Projekt folk behind The Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077, have officially titled their forthcoming dark fantasy RPG. That title is… Dawnwalker. They’ve also shared a new teaser image, which I think could depict one of two things: a) a vampiric or otherwise supernaturally-inclined hero flying through the air care of a Dishonored-style Blink teleport, sword raised and clawed fingers stretched towards an unseen foe against a blood-red backdrop. Or b) a man with his trousers aflame swinging through the window of a second floor spa while attempting to use his umbrella as a parachute, having received only half a pedicure before the building caught fire.

Welcome to another instalment of the Maw, our weekly live round-up of all things New and videogame-flavoured, as we continue our eternal efforts to appease the festering dark god of gossip and reportage. I asked the Maw if it had any 2024 resolutions last Friday, and it responded with the brain-splitting clamour of a million fell voices crying out in anguish. I have run this through our Chthonic Translator and the short version is that it wants to get down the gym now and then.
It is a radical form of recycling. Calendars from 1996 are being reused for 2024 as both are leap years that begin on a Monday. The quirk has sparked a flurry of interest on the internet, with 1990s nostalgia fans chasing down vintage calendars nearly 30 years old. As last year came to an end, people began posting about how the 1996 calendar works neatly in 2024, with one TikTok clip garnering over 1.5 million views. Another viral post, this time on X (formerly Twitter), playfully reminds people to start reusing their carefully saved calendars featuring then-child star Jonathan Taylor Thomas -- who is now aged 42.
