Oh, sothisis whatPac-Man: Battle Royaleis all about. It’s a shame this reveal video for the arcade game is nothing more than some logos and a single in-game screenshot that’s obscured by large text. Still, we have enough to go on to get a basic idea of how the game will play.
From what I can gather,Pac-Man: Battle Royalewill essentially be multiplayerPac-Managainst aPac-Man: Championship Editionbackdrop, which is a smart move. As far as sequels/reboots/whatever go for arcade classics,Pac-Man: CEremains by and large one of the better ones.
My fond memories ofPac-Man Vs.— yes, I still have one of those silly GameCube-to-GBA cables around here somewhere — has me wondering if it’ll be merely player-controlled Pac-Men or if there will be playable ghosts too; it’s probably the former.
Answers await us at the 2010 Amusement Expo, which is, thankfully, on the very near horizon. If any of you are planning to attend, make sure to tell Namco Bandai to put this thing on Xbox LIVE Arcade.
