‘Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game’ Panel At Evo 2026: What To Expect
Here’s everything we can expect at the Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game Panel at Evo 2026 on Friday.
Friday, June 26th will mark the beginning of Evo 2026 in Las Vegas, a weekend long event dedicated to all things fighting games including tournaments, new reveals and more. Among those titles is Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game which will have an approximately hour long panel at 7:00 PM PT / 10:00 PM ET. See the full Evo 2026 Friday Schedule below:
Today, the Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game social pages have teased some of what we can expect at the panel which we’ll discuss in today’s article.
Exhibition Matches – Starting things off we’ll be able to see more gameplay, the teaser shows a battle between Korra and Azula but we can expect even more unique pairings.
Year 1 Pass Roster Reveal – Next up, fans can look forward to the reveal of all 5 characters from the upcoming Year 1 Pass. This pass is bundled with the Deluxe Edition ($49.99 USD) of Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game.
Character Vote Candidates – Finally, as mentioned previously, those who pre-order Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game will have the chance to vote for one of the characters to be added to the Year 1 Pass. We’ll see which characters we can vote on at the panel.
It’s unclear what else could be at the panel but with two fighters still left to be revealed, the EVO Panel would be a great opportunity to show them off. If not at Evo, these remaining fighters could also be shown off in the period between the Closed Beta’s End (July 6th, 2026) and the game’s launch (July 23rd, 2026).
June 26th (the day of the panel) would also mark 6 days until the beginning of the Closed Beta Test on July 2nd, 2026. To access this test, players must pre-order the game but that’s currently not possible on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. This panel could be the place to announce that pre-orders are now live on consoles.
