This week’s North American Wii U Virtual Console release is now confirmed. Tomorrow, Bandai Namco will be bringing out Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures.

Here’s a brief overview of the game:

“Join Pac-Man as he explores and interacts with the world and characters around him. Take on a task, and then take a wild ride on a mine cart or set off on an intense hand-glider flight while fending off some unrestful ghosts. When you need a break from being the hero, relive the classics in Pac-City arcade with the original Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man.”

Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures will set you back $7.99.
