By Allison Matyus Updated July 21, 2020

All four seasons of The Legend of Korra officially hit Netflix on Friday, August 14.

The sequel to the cult-favorite animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender ran on Nickelodeon from 2012-2014. Now, you’ll be able to binge the two series back-to-back on the streaming service.

The Legend of Korra is set in Avatar’s fictional universe, where there are four nations, each devoted to a different element: Earth, air, water, and fire. The series follows Avatar Korra, who is Avatar Aang’s successor from the original series. Korra fights to keep the Republic City safe from evil forces coming from Avatar’s physical and spiritual worlds throughout the series’ four seasons.

Devoted fans took to Twitter after Netflix announced the series release date on Tuesday to share their excitement.

The intense critical and audience support for HBO's The Last of Us and the overwhelming box-office success of The Super Mario Bros. Movie have led fans to believe we are entering the golden age of video game adaptations. The industry is now turning its head to other highly profitable IPs it can turn into cinematic franchises, and luckily for them, there's no shortage of popular Nintendo games that should be turned into movies. And no game is higher on that list than The Legend of Zelda.

One of Nintendo's most beloved and valuable brands, The Legend of Zelda has been around since the mid-80s. Although the series has undergone several changes and adapted its characters into numerous incarnations, the main plot usually centers on Link, a young and courageous warrior, and Princess Zelda, the reincarnation of the goddess Hylia. Together, the pair fights against Ganon, a demon king who wishes to possess the Triforce to rule over the kingdom of Hyrule.
