Considered to be among the most recognised videogame characters of all-time, PAC-MAN originally launched in 1980 and has become one of the longest running video game franchises in arcades and virtually every game system ever made.
PAC-MAN Battle Casino will feature cutting-edge real-money
gaming mechanics as 2-4 players battle each other for a cash prize, while
retaining the fun and retro maze gameplay that has made PAC-MAN a fan-favorite
around the world.
The original Japanese development team behind PAC-MAN Battle Royale is teaming
up with Gamblit Gaming on a co-development project to bring PAC-MAN Battle
Casino to life on casino floors in early 2018 on Gamblit’s Model G interactive
game tables. They are also planning to develop an all new single player PAC-MAN
experience for Gamblit’s TriStation hardware.
"Like so many people, PAC-MAN was the first arcade game I ever played,” said Darion Lowenstein, Chief Marketing Officer, Gamblit Gaming. "Partnering with the visionary team at Bandai Namco Entertainment to bring an entirely new and innovative experience to fellow PAC-MAN fans is truly an honor and a dream come true for me,” Lowenstein added.
"PAC-MAN is one of the most famous and popular video games,” said Yoshiyasu Horiuchi, Executive Officer, AM Business Unit of Bandai Namco Entertainment. "We believe PAC-MAN Battle Casino will appeal to a wide range of people, especially those who once played PAC-MAN.”
The new title will make its world debut at the Gamblit Gaming booth during the Global Gaming Expo (G2E), next October 3-5, 2017.
