Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora Requires Online Connection and Patch for Physical Edition Owners

The physical edition of Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora requires an online connection to install, as confirmed by a Reddit user who received an early copy of the game. Attempts to play the game offline resulted in a logo image and release date display, indicating that the game won't continue until it's been verified online. While this requirement may not affect most players, it raises concerns about long-term preservation and the game's playability when servers are eventually turned off. It remains unclear if subsequent releases will remove this online connection requirement.
