It seems that Pac-Man has been around my whole life, when in reality in a few days, the game will be thirty-seven years old. While it is normally an odd year to celebrate, Bandai Namco is using the anniversary to develop a new game with the iconic character and are looking to the fans for funding using Kickstarter.
Earlier today, on the game’s official Twitter account, the publisher posted about the news:
PAC-MAN will turn 37 on May 22nd! We will start an exclusive #kickstarter project to celebrate it. https://t.co/OCD79gjYPW#PACMAN pic.twitter.com/l4jWhE2xLU

If you want to learn more about the game, you can go here and register. It will only take a minute as the company is only asking for your first name and email account.
Pac-Man transcends age groups, beloved by fans young and old and can not see any issue raising any amount of money the publisher feels they need. Perhaps it could be totally funded within the first twenty-four hours.
There was not much else revealed about the new title or the Kickstarter funding, stay with Real Otaku Gamer as we cover all the news as it is being released this Monday, May 22, 2017.
