"Pac-Man World," a classic video game title from PlayStation 1 will be revived in a remake under "Re-Pac." Bandai Namco confirms that the upcoming game is coming on Aug. 26 on PC, Nintendo Switch, and PS5.
Since this is a revamped version, this title is expected to arrive with smoother graphics and updated gameplay. There might be a new twist in the story, but we will see if it's true upon its official launch two months from now.
'Pac-Man World Re-Pac' is Arriving Soon
Following the Direct event that took place recently, Nintendo has teased the fans with a lot of games that will be returning to several platforms.
At the time, the company unveiled "Monster Hunter," "Mario + Rabbids," and "Bomberman." Apart from these titles, the remake of the "Pac-Man World" has been mentioned.
According to a report by The Gamer, the classic PS1 titles will be arriving on Nintendo Switch and PS5. It's coming to PC, as well.
Here, you can expect a lot of new adventures that await you. "Pac-Man World Re-Pac" will tour the users into the new Maze Mode and Quest Mode.
If you want to obtain the original "Pac-Man" title, you need to finish the Quest Mode.
What 'Pac-Man World' is All About
For those unfamiliar with the game, this 1999 title from Bandai Namco has first entered the gaming industry through the PlayStation 1 console.
The 3D platformer is about Pac-Man, the game's protagonist who's searching for his lost friends. As the main character of "Re-Pac," you must invade the Ghost Island and defeat the ghosts there, per Video Games Chronicle.
Your objective is not easy since you need to travel through six worlds before reaching them.
As a reference, the classic gamers might have known that the first Pac-Man game was similar to the modern maze games. However, there's a twist for the "Pac-Man World" remake. You can now launch attacks on your opponents by rolling or bouncing like a ball.
Ahead of its Aug. 26 launch, Reset Era has recently shared the leaked screenshots of the game. Based on the uploaded images, Amazon will be having a pre-order for the upcoming "Pac-Man World: Re-Pac."
Aside from "Pac-Man," Bandai Namco has launched another PlayStation 1 classic. "Klonoa Phantasy Reverie Series" is said to be a mishmash of the two nostalgic titles on PS1 and PS1, which is "Klonoa: Door to Phantomile'' and "Klonoa 2: Lunatea's Veil," respectively.
The new package will be packed with exciting features that are worth checking. If you have no idea about the game but want to play it, there's an optional tutorial to help you.
Additionally, you can try exploring the three-stage modes(easy, normal, difficult), as well as the two-player support mode and the Stopwatch mode.
