Pac-Man 35th Anniversary Games Update

The Pac just celebrated his 35th birthday at Bandia-Namco's, Chicago based restaurant, Level 257 with great fanfare. Gaming legends such as Billy Mitchell, Walter Day and the creator of Pac-Man himself, Professor Toru Iwatani made appearances. Sweet!

To continue the year long celebration, Bandai-Namco Entertainment have more games coming down the pipeline for all of us to enjoy.

First off, Pac-Man both on Android and iOS just had a significant update. Adding 35th Anniversary mazes, a new user interface and new multiplayer modes, if you haven't downloaded a copy on your favourite phone or tablet, then now is the time.



Now this next game looks exciting! Coming very soon, will be Crossy Road developers, Hispter Whale's next game. Pac-Man 256 is a very unique, fast-paced endless runner featuring Pac-Man as he not only dodges ghosts while eating pellets, but he has to escape the evil level 256 glitch. Nice!

The upcoming summer blockbuster flick Pixels from Sony Pictures, features arcade legends such as Pac-Man and Donkey Kong starring alongside Adam Sandler and Peter Dinklage. Bandai-Namco have a mobile title based on the game to be launched alongside the movie at the end of July. This tower defence game will feature the characters and arcade legends from the film. I can't wait for this movie and game to come out!

Pac-Man Championship Edition DX is on it's way to Android and iOS very soon. Long been available on Windows devices, this title was confirmed at Level 257's Pac-Man birthday celebration to finally be making it's mobile appearance soon. I love this enhanced version of Championship Edition and I can't wait to play it on the go!

Bandia-Namco Entertainment also confirmed during the celebration that more is to come. This is just the start for a great year in Pac-Man and classic arcade gaming! Let the year long Pac-Man Fever begin!
