Patapons can also be enhanced by combining items collected from rare materials through stages and missions. With over 400 types of weapons and equipment, players can build their personalized Patapon unit and tackle diverse stages and formidable enemies.

Players will find the game easy to jump into with its intuitive and rhythm-based controls and will ultimately need to hone their skills to for precise timing and tactical thinking to maintain the rhythm to truly master the Patapon tribe. The game keeps the original’s fun and DNA with new updates that are making it even more accessible and enjoyable! This package introduces new support features like three difficulty settings (Normal, Easy, Hard), timing adjustment, and constant command display.

BANDAI NAMCO’S DARK SCI-FI TAKE ON PAC-MAN IN SHADOW LABYRINTH IS COMING THIS JULY

Consume, Hunt and Become the Apex Predator on a Hostile Alien Planet in an Action-Packed Reimagining of the Legendary Game Icon, with Preorders Available Now

Discover a world of secrets including a darkly inspired take on the iconic PAC-MAN and other legendary arcade IP in SHADOW LABYRINTH, the action-packed 2D platformer from Bandai Namco Entertainment Europe. Developed by Bandai Namco Studios, the game is an epic journey through a hostile planet where dangers both new and familiar challenge players, and where they must explore, hunt, and consume the dark creatures around them in their quest to become the planet’s apex predator. SHADOW LABYRINTH is slated for release on 18 July 2025, and is available now for pre-orders on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam in Digital Standard and Digital Deluxe Editions, pre-orders for Nintendo Switch with digital pre-orders opening soon. For more information, visit www.shadowlabyrinthgame.com.

Also revealed today, a new trailer spotlights never-before-seen gameplay including the first glimpse of a powerful mode players unlock as they progress through the game, where they take on the form of a massive robotic mech called GAIA. GAIA inflicts devastating damage to enemies and levels the playing field for battles with some of the game’s most epically huge bosses. GAIA is the latest reveal of multiple modes of play along with the quick and agile Swordsman No.8 melee combat and Mini PUCK mode that lets players ride rails and explore small areas in classic PAC-MAN fashion.

As a departure from any previous PAC-MAN game, SHADOW LABYRINTH puts players in the role of another character as protagonist, a warrior named Swordsman No. 8, but with the mysterious yet familiar yellow companion PUCK at their side. PUCK’s role is that of guide and guardian, teaching players that their aim in this treacherous world is to escape it, and to achieve that they must consume everything that waits in the darkness to survive and grow more powerful.

Along the way, they encounter increasingly challenging enemies, and puzzles with gameplay that weaves fluid tried and true 2D action platformer mechanics with inspired modern game design. SHADOW LABYRINTH offers a vast maze-filled world to explore as players uncover terrifying secrets about the planet and its inhabitants. The game features an engaging narrative, where venturing deeper into this maze of a world begins to unravel the mystery of the planet and PUCK’s role in it. The rich story draws wider inspiration than just PAC-MAN, tapping into Bandai Namco’s broader library of beloved classic games, and promising to delight fans with familiarity and nostalgia for classic arcade games.

Full details on all available digital pre-order versions for SHADOW LABYRINTH include:

  • Digital Standard Edition: Includes the Base Game and Original Arcade Sound FX Pre-order bonus.
  • Digital Deluxe Edition: Includes the Base Game, Original Arcade Sound FX Pre-order bonus, and Digital Deluxe Content (Digital Artbook and Digital Soundtrack)
