Avatar Game Gets a Rare 40FPS Mode in New PS5 Patch

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora has been updated to support a new graphical mode running at 40 frames-per-second while boasting higher resolutions. Available to download now on PS5 as part of patch 3.2, the mode can be used on 4K TVs that support up to 120Hz. Prior to this, Avatar PS5 only had Quality and Performance Modes, but this new option looks to feature the best of both worlds after the 2.4GB download.

Despite being fairly sought after by the hardcore community, 40fps modes have been a rarity throughout the PS5 era. Insomniac Games essentially introduced them with Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales, later patching the option into Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart and shipping it in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. You’ll also find 40fps modes in other PS5 titles like Hogwarts Legacy, Lies of P, and God of War Ragnarok.

Patch 3.2 for Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora also includes the following:

Global:

• Added Fast Travel option to Research Station Alpha.
• Controller re-mapping no longer resets on game restart.
• Fixed various crashes.
• Fixed a few misspellings.
• Fixed some voice lines overlapping during dialogue.

Main Quests & Side Quests:

• [Main Quest – Shadows of the Past] Fixed an issue that would prevent the quest from updating when done in co-op.

Additional Bug Fixes:

• [All Platforms] Rescued Resistance human characters no longer appear back in the Resistance HQ with a mask on.
• [All Platforms] Some NPCs no longer become invisible when at the edge of the Player’s vision.
