Get ready, retro gaming fans! Atari and Bandai Namco are gearing up to send you back in time with the Atari 2600+ Pac-Man Edition, a vibrant celebration of the legendary yellow character as it marks its 45th anniversary.
Originally debuting in 2023, the Atari 2600+ breathed new life into the beloved classic console, merging retro charm with modern features like HDMI and USB-C ports. This upcoming Pac-Man Edition promises the same nostalgic gaming experience, but with an eye-popping yellow exterior adorned with the iconic Pac-Man and his ghostly companions.
"The Atari 2600+ Pac-Man Edition isn’t just another console; it’s a celebration of the dawn of home gaming," said Plaion, the manufacturer behind this exciting release. "By reimagining this classic hardware in Pac-Man’s iconic style, we honor two titans who paved the way for generations of gamers."
This special edition will come with a matching yellow CX-40 wireless joystick, and fans can also explore various color options reflecting Pac-Man’s ghostly foes—Blinky, Inky, Clyde, and Pinky—available for separate purchase.
The console ships with a unique Pac-Man Double Feature cartridge, featuring the inaugural home release of the classic 1980s Pac-Man 2600, alongside an exhilarating arcade-style twist of the beloved Pac-Man 7800. Get ready to power up and chase those ghosts in style!
