Pac-Man Mega Tunnel Battle: Chomp Champs announced for Switch
While one Pac-Man battle royale experience on Switch just shut down, Bandai Namco just revealed a new game for the franchise titled Pac-Man Mega Tunnel Battle: Chomp Champs. The title is launching in early 2024.
Pac-Man Mega Tunnel Battle: Chomp Champs is officially described as a competitive eating battle royale with support for up to 64 players. Expect to go through multiple interconnected mazes using Power Pellets and different Power Items to chomp the Ghosts and Pac-Man opponents. Similar to other battle royales, you’ll look to be the last Pac standing at the end of the match.
Here’s some additional information via Bandai Namco:
Pac-Man Mega Tunnel Battle: Chomp Champs brings a lot of variety and features that make playing its uniquely Pac-Man take on Battle Royale even more fun. 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 the occasional fruit, but they can also chomp through other player-controlled Pac-Man characters. Additionally, players can assert their own unique style by personalizing their Pac with a fun variety of body, head, and face cosmetics.
For those who enjoy healthy competition, Pac-Man Mega Tunnel Battle: Chomp Champs lets players compete in Ranked or Elimination modes or spectate matches either regionally or from the global leaderboard. The 64-player Battle Royale game is further enhanced with cross-platform play and skill-based matchmaking, broadening the field for competition while also letting players choose who they want to compete against.
The first trailer for the game is available below.
