Namco Bandai has announced that Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures for the Nintendo 3DS has moved up its launch date to November 5th, 2013. While Pac will be back on the 3DS sooner than planned, the 3DS launch will still follow the HD console release of the game on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii U and Steam, set for October 29th.
Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures is a bustling and bonkers world of adventure, wackiness and charming characters built for a whole new generation of gamers. And now, players can look forward to fast-paced side-scrolling action with unique power ups in the 3DS game in less than a month. Not only that, Pac fans will be able to enjoy all-new multiplayer ghost chase modes and retro arcade-style mini games in the HD console game even sooner.
In anticipation of the return of Pac, Namco Bandai also announced an exclusive Gift offer with each purchase of Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures for all available platforms. Customers will receive a ghoulishly exciting glow-in-the-dark poster (as seen above) that will be packed with game units while supplies last.
