Shadow Labyrinth is unusual, dark take on classic Pac-Man. Bandai Namco surprised

As a seasoned gamer with decades of gaming under my belt, I must say that Bandai Namco’s unveiling of Shadow Labyrinth at The Game Awards 2024 has truly piqued my interest. Having grown up playing Pac-Man, it’s fascinating to see such a dark and intriguing twist on the classic game.

At The Game Awards 2024, Bandai Namco introduced Shadow Labyrinth – an intriguing, dark reimagining of the traditional Pac-Man concept, far removed from the simple, innocuous gameplay of the original with its yellow ball eating dots.

The Shadow Labyrinth is a side-scrolling metroidvania game where you assume the role of a sword-wielding adventurer navigating through a shrouded labyrinth. Along your journey, you’ll encounter and battle against malevolent spirits. Overcoming these entities will grant you access to new abilities.

Below you can watch the first trailer, which also showed fragments of gameplay.

Excitedly put, I can’t contain my enthusiasm as a fan! Shadow Labyrinth is making its grand entrance on PC (Steam), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch. The much-anticipated release is slated for the year 2025!
