Boston (EON) – Ubisoft is very clsoe to nailing deals for two of the biggest sci-fi properties in Hollywood with Avatar and Heroes.

The French publisher Ubisoft stated that they are going to be making a videogame based on the James Cameron 3D movie Avatar as they have struck a deal with Fox already for that game.

Ubisoft also has another deal in the works with NBC Universal. This deal will allow them to produce a videogame around the hottest new show on television this past season, Heroes.

Heroes could make for a great videogame due to the super-hero characters and storylines.

NBC and Ubisoft both declined comment on the possible Heroes deal.

Both the Avatar game and film will be out in May 2009.
