MONTREAL – NOVEMBER 2, 2021 – Kabam, in collaboration with Nickelodeon, today announced a new Avatar: The Last Airbender special event arriving in Shop Titans. Taking place Nov. 2-29, this limited-time event brings fan-favorite characters, attire, gear, and other familiar themes from the iconic animated series to the award-winning game world of Shop Titans.
Shop Titans (rated T for Teen by the ESRB) is a free-to-play Tycoon Simulation, Light Adventure RPG game on mobile and PC platforms. Set in a fantasy world filled with hilarious character-driven banter between their Champions and city Workers, players can become a fantasy shop tycoon by crafting epic weapons, managing a store to success, and building a team of adventurers to quest for loot. The game’s new Avatar: The Last Airbender in-game content launches today on the App Store, Google Play and Steam, allowing longtime series fans to experience their favorite characters and series themes in a brand-new setting. The crossover also marks the first time ever that Shop Titans fans can experience new content based on another popular entertainment property.
Shop Titans players will receive a variety of new content including a featured storyline alongside Champions Aang and Sokka as they lead heroes through quests. Alongside these interactions with fan favorites, the in-game event offers other Avatar: The Last Airbender experiences and gear. Shopkeepers can dress heroes up like their favorite Airbender, decorate their store with Lord Ozai’s Throne, adorn shop yards with a restful Appa, craft and sell iconic items like Sokka’s boomerang, and much more. Players will also find a new content pass reward track, new vanity items (Shopkeeper, Indoor/Outdoor display items), and new blueprints.
“As one of the world’s most beloved animated series, Avatar: The Last Airbender is a perfect fit for Shop Titans! Both are known for fantasy action and great storytelling filled with humor and charming characters,” said Tim Fields, CEO of Kabam. “Shop Titans is one of the gaming universe’s most original mobile experiences, and we wanted to give gamers and Avatar fans a chance to shop, craft, trade and adventure together. We couldn’t be more excited for this collaboration with Nickelodeon!”
Fans are invited to visit Shop Titans today to begin their very own Avatar: The Last Airbender shop experience!
