Pac-Man's gonna be back this fall
Gone are the days when Pac-Man solely ate dots on that retro screen as 2D ghouls and ghosts try to chase him around the maze.
This fall, Kotaku reports that Pac-Man and Ghostly Adventures will be released by Namco Bandai.
"The game revolves around the vibrant universe of Pac-World, where Pacworlders lived in peace until the mischievous Netherworld ghosts, led by their wicked leader Betrayus, escaped from their ghoulish domain to forcibly take control of Pac-World," according to the press release as quoted by Kotaku.
Operating on the plot that he is the last Pacworlder to save their world, Pac-Man will have more tricks up his sleeves, as he makes use of the things he eats to turn them into potential weapons.
Watch out for Pac-Man and friends, heading to the Xbox 360, PS3, Wii U, and 3DS. However, Game Informer adds that this will be a limited release, to be distributed only to North America and Latin America.
