This is

, a battle royale version of the famous 1980s game and produced by the Bandai Namco studio,

reports

.

To get it, you must be subscribed to the Nintendo Switch Online service.

Just like

Tetris 99

 released on the same switch in 2019,

Pac-Man 99

 will allow each participant to fight to be the last Pac-Man and win the game.

A video published by Nintendo France on YouTube allows us to see more clearly.

Fight against other players

Pac-Man is still struggling with ghosts that he must escape and that he can swallow after collecting pac-gums.

But, we must also take into account the other 98 players.

They can thus send disruptive Pac-Man.

The player who touches too much loses.

It is also possible for him to send these disruptors to a competitor of your choice.

"Create a ghost train"

Nintendo gives the key to victory.

To have a chance to be the last, you have to eat the sleeping ghosts to create a train of ghosts, "then eat a pac-gum to overwhelm your opponents".

This action has a devastating effect on the other participants.

The Nintendo Switch Online subscription to download this game costs 3.99 euros per month or 19.99 euros per year.

If

Pac-Man

is then free-to-play, players wishing to obtain additional modes, including offline play, or additional themes, can purchase a Deluxe Pack version at 29.99 euros.
