He is a cultural icon that is embraced by the global community as one of the most recognized video game characters of all time. In 2025, we celebrate PAC-MAN's legacy with all our fans as well as look ahead towards the future to create impact for the next generation of players.

To survive you will discover many secrets, consume your enemies, and grow from prey to the apex predator as you embrace your true purpose.
