Is Jake Sully in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora?

Does Jake Sully "see you?"

Jake Sully making an appearance in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora seems like the most obvious shoo-in for connecting the Avatar films to the canon game. However, the timeline placement might not fit Jake Sully’s storyline, so how could all of that work out?

Can you find Jake Sully in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora?

Unfortunately, Jake Sully can’t be found in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. The character’s also not listed in the credits for the game (via ), so Sam Worthington’s hero has no input.

It can be argued the game not having a connection to the main protagonist is advantageous. Ubisoft is given its own area of Pandora to divulge into called the Western Frontier rather than retreading familiar ground. However, it has been teased there will be a connection from Frontiers of Pandora to future film entries.

“I can say that there are going to be some future sequel elements in Frontiers of Pandora that will pay off when the movie comes out, when Avatar 3 comes out in 2025,” said Lightstorm Entertainment’s vice president of franchise development Joshua Izzo to . Perhaps Jake Sully ventures into the Western Frontier in the sequel.

Is James Cameron offering input?

Cameron doesn’t seem to have much input into Frontiers of Pandora, but he has said to that he was “very excited” about the project. Similar to LucasFilm with the Star Wars games, it’s likely Cameron or his staff is keeping the lore intact.

“I don’t tell them what to do — they know their world, their business, their market,” said James Cameron to IGN. “We just keep a close eye that they don’t do anything that’s not canonical in terms of Na’vi culture and what the RDA is doing on Pandora and all that sort of thing.”
