Pac-Man is one of the oldest video game franchises, and the first game was released around 42 years ago. It was at the peak when arcade gaming was a trend. Even today, thinking about arcades, the first thing we think about is Pac-Man and Ghosts.

Battle Royale video games have become a new norm in the gaming community. These days many developers have come up with battle royale games, and so did Pac-Man’s publisher Bandai Namco.

It is that good old classic Pac-Man game where the player controls the yellow hungry ball and eats the dots in a maze while evading the ghosts. In this game, players can eat ghosts after eating a power pellet. You might now wonder where is the battle royale in it.

So, players won’t play alone but will play with 99 other players. Further, players would become “Jammer Pac-Man” after eating the ghosts and be teleported to other players’ games, where the Jammers need to prevent them from eating the dots.

Undoubtedly, using the classic Pac-Man game and battle royal together was a unique concept. Even fans loved the unique idea behind the game. As a result, this 2021 game recently hit 9 million downloads. So celebrating this outstanding achievement, Nintendo announced a 35 percent off on DLC Mode Unlock and 50 percent off on Deluxe Pack. However, this sale would be available till November 20 and only to selected locations.

What do fans have to say about the epic milestone?

Nintendo fans enjoyed this game and are happy about this achievement. A fan loved playing Pac-man 99, so he asked Nintendo to release a physical copy of this free-to-play game, similar to Tetris 99. Further, fans asked the developers to provide more offers to make the game more enjoyable.
