BANDAI NAMCO AND SUPERSOCIAL LAUNCH “PAC-MAN SIMULATOR”, BRINGING THE LEGENDARY GAME ICON TO ROBLOX

The experience offers a new way for players to immerse themselves into the world of PAC-MAN, promising fun for nostalgic and new fans alike

Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc., leading global publisher and developer, and Supersocial, a pioneer in virtual world development, today announced the launch of “PAC-MAN Simulator,” creating an all-new experience on Roblox based on the globally beloved video game icon. PAC-MAN Simulator adapts the revered IP for the first time on Roblox, the global immersive platform for connection and communication. Supersocial and Bandai Namco plan to expand on the core experience launched today with new content and features in the coming months.

“We are thrilled to collaborate with Bandai Namco to bring the iconic PAC-MAN franchise to Roblox. This endeavor is about celebrating the ubiquity and accessibility of PAC-MAN to champion connections across generations,” said Yon Raz-Fridman, CEO and Founder of Supersocial. “The experience serves as a conduit for parents, who often played PAC-MAN in arcades, to join their families in the immersive world of Roblox. For more than four decades, PAC-MAN has been at the forefront of the gaming industry and we are honored to be a part of its continued legacy.”

PAC-MAN Simulator is a testament to Supersocial’s ability to transform brands and iconic content into virtual world experiences for a new generation of players. As a reimagination of the original video game, the experience puts Roblox users in a dynamic world where they cultivate a team in a simulator where they must consume fortifying dots, collect diverse PAC-MAN skins, and challenge GHOSTS to unlock new areas and exclusive rewards.

“We’re thrilled to partner with Supersocial to debut PAC-MAN on Roblox, bringing an enduring video game icon who crosses cultural and generational boundaries to an immersive platform that reaches people of all types around the world,” said Karim Farghaly, Sr. Vice President, Corporate Development, Bandai Namco Entertainment America Inc. “With our continued focus on cultivating community and building fan connections, PAC-MAN Simulator offers an interactive gaming experience where players new and old can come together and immerse themselves into the world of PAC-MAN.”
