TO commemorate Earth Day, Avatar Generations has added the fan-favorite earth avatar in the game’s latest update, according to CDE Entertainment.

With the April 21 update, players can now embark on a journey following the remarkable story of the Earth Kingdom’s Avatar Kyoshi through the game’s Avatar Timelines feature. She is the first avatar to be introduced in the game after Avatar Aang. 

The Avatar Timelines feature allows players to experience the lives of the previous avatars in the game franchise while also using them as additional playable characters in the combat game.

This additional game feature is based on the 2019 fantasy novel The Rise of Kyoshi by author F.C. Ye and Avatar: The Last Airbender (ATLA) co-creator Michael Dante DiMartino. The book narrates the earth avatar’s early life, her expeditions, and her attempt to balance the world by maintaining peace and justice.

Avatar Generations is a turn-based combat game based on the iconic Nickelodeon series released in August 2022. It allows players to create a team of four heroes to battle through the world of Avatar, and journey across the Four Nations to fulfill the Avatar’s destiny.

New heroes

Aside from adding Avatar Kyoshi and her younger version in the new in-game character lineup, players will also be able to use new heroes in Kyoshi’s timeline, including Yun, Rangi, and Kelsang, as they set forth in an adventure in the avatar’s hometown, the Yokoya peninsula.

Players can collect these heroes and build their dream team along with other ATLA characters, and fight with the story villains from any generation.

One of the most interesting additional heroines in the game is Rangi, a fire army officer and a member of the illustrious Sei’naka clan. She is also Avatar Kyoshi’s firebending instructor, closest companion, and lover.

The Kyoshi legacy

Avatar Kyoshi was one of the most powerful and prominent avatars in the hit 2005 cartoon series Avatar: The Last Airbender. 

Avatar Kyoshi was the Earth Kingdom-born Avatar who lived during the late hundred-year war period, succeeding Avatar Roku and preceding Avatar Aang. She is widely considered one of the most powerful Avatars in history, renowned for her mastery of earthbending and her quick-thinking in combat.

Kyoshi is known for being strong-willed, determined, and fiercely independent. She is also well-regarded for having a strong sense of justice and being a great protector of her people and the environment.

She was a powerful earthbender, capable of moving massive amounts of earth and rock. In fact, she was so skilled that she was able to create an entire island, which is now known as Kyoshi Island. She did this by separating it from the mainland with her bending abilities while defending her people from a ruthless colonizer.

Kyoshi is likewise known for her tough and uncompromising personality, as well as her willingness to take drastic measures to maintain peace and stability. In fact, she famously created the Kyoshi Warriors, an all-female group of warriors trained in combat and defense of the Earth Kingdom.

Throughout her life, Kyoshi faced many challenges and enemies, but she remained steadfast and true to her beliefs. Her legacy lived on long after her death, and she is remembered as a formidable force for good, willing to do whatever it takes to protect the world from chaos and destruction.

Earth day

Earth day is celebrated every April 22. It seeks to raise awareness about the need to protect the earth and its natural resources. 

It is usually marked with tree planting activities, clean up drives, and other moves to call for more efforts to address climate change.
