The second installment of the box office record breaking sci-fi- fantasy film is expected to go into production in the summer, but fans may be in for a double treat as Ubisoft has announced plans to create a pixelated challenge about the world of the blue Na'vi aliens who inhabit the planet Pandora.

Massive - the world's best multi-screen video platform creator - is working alongside Fox Interactive and Cameron's studio Lightstorm Entertainment to create the title.

Although details of the game - including the plot - are yet to be announced, it has been confirmed that the animation will be available for PC and console platforms.

Ubisoft said in a statement: "The game will continue to expand and deepen in the 'Avatar' universe in exciting and innovative ways along with the films."

Cameron - who has promised four sequels to his 2009 intergalactic epic - added: "With the power of Massive's Snowdrop game engine and the team's passion and obsessive focus on detail, we know they're the right group to bring the beauty and danger of Pandora to life."

No release date for the game has been given as of yet.
