Unique to Namco's other modern arcade releases, the company created a Facebook page to promote the game, which registered locations where players could find the game. officially announced the release of Pac-Man Battle Royale on January 21, 2011. While the game was reported for a release in September 2010, it was delayed for unknown reasons until late November 2010. It was not seen in Japan until September 2010 at the Amusement Machine Show, which is opposite of most major Namco arcade releases where they are shown off in Japan first and are later brought to the US. Namco also took the unusual step of throwing a party prior to the launch of the game at the Whiskey River Saloon in Madison, Wisconsin. It was then seen again at an after-party event during E3, where Namco America brought four cabinets for attendees to play. Pac-Man Battle Royale was first displayed in the United States in a playable state at the 2010 Amusement Expo show in Las Vegas. All players are brought back into the game at the start of each new round after the final round, the player with the most victories is the overall winner.
The last remaining Pac-Man wins the round. Blue Pac-Men cannot knock or pass through each other.Įach round lasts a maximum of two minutes, with an on-screen countdown for the last 10 seconds. If two Pac-Men of equal strength run into each other, they are knocked backward a short distance but suffer no harm otherwise. Un-powered Pac-Men are eliminated from the round when they either run into a ghost or are eaten by a powered-up Pac-Man.
During this time, the un-powered Pac-Men turn blue but retain an outline of their original colour, and they cannot eat ghosts. When a Pac-Man eats a power pellet, they grow in size and can eat the ghosts and any un-powered Pac-Men until the pellet wears off. In addition if any player eats a bonus item that appears next to the ghosts' cage, all remaining dots and pellets are immediately removed and replaced. New dots and pellets appear whenever the players eat them all. The players move throughout a maze, avoiding ghosts and attempting to eat dots and power pellets scattered throughout. Each player controls a differently coloured Pac-Man character (yellow, pink, blue and red) a single player faces one computer-controlled Pac-Man opponent. In Pac-Man Battle Royale, up to four players can compete at once, choosing a game length of between three and nine rounds. It was released for arcades in January 2011, and was released on several platforms afterwards following its release. The game sees up to four players control multi-colored Pac-Men as they try to compete to be the last Pac-Man standing.
