PAC-MAN MEGA TUNNEL BATTLE: CHOMP CHAMPS is bringing competitive eating, PAC-MAN style, to PC and consoles. Bandai Namco Europe S.A.S. today announced the game will launch on 9th May 2024, and is available now for preorder. PAC-MAN MEGA TUNNEL BATTLE: CHOMP CHAMPS is a raucous take on PAC-MAN multiplayer, featuring cross-play for the first time and amping up gameplay with 64-player battles, a variety of colourful interconnected mazes, customizable PACs, and Power Items that not only boost players’ abilities but can also help the GHOSTS chase down the competition.
The game is available now for preorder in Standard and Deluxe editions, with all preorders receiving the Chomp Challengers Pac Preorder bonus, and is coming to Nintendo Switch™, PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam®.
PAC-MAN MEGA TUNNEL BATTLE: CHOMP CHAMPS captures PAC-MAN’s insatiable appetite in a game where everything except the maze is edible. In the game, players must eat their way through multiple interconnected mazes to become the Chomp Champ – a.k.a. the last PAC standing at the end of each match. Gain the upper hand on other players or turn the tables against GHOSTS by utilizing a variety of Power Items which give PAC-MAN shields, enhanced speed, and more. Players can also sabotage their competition by using Power Items that help the GHOSTS. Not only will they be able to chomp through PAC-MAN’s regular diet of dots and fruit, but they can also chomp through other players’ PACs in true competitive head-to-head competition.
Ready to welcome players of varying skill levels, game modes include Elimination Mode with arcade-style action where players of any rank can compete and earn Tokens to redeem on customization items, and Ranked Mode where players battle against similarly skilled opponents from around the world and gain Rank XP earning their place on the leaderboards. With 63 other players per match, bling is the way to stand out in the crowd; players can customize their PAC with a variety of body, head, and face cosmetics. PAC-MAN MEGA TUNNEL BATTLE: CHOMP CHAMPS includes a Friend system that lets players drop into the same match with friends, track progress, and spectate the action when their friends – or foes – are playing the game.
