Pac-Man Mega Tunnel Battle was just one of many Stadia exclusives lost when Google's service shut down, but it makes a triumphant comeback this week.
If you’re a fan of Pac-Man , you’re in luck. On May 9, Pac-Man Mega Tunnel Battle: Chomp Champs hits PC and all major consoles. The online-only multiplayer release is a battle royale game where 64 players fight to survive across interconnected mazes. It’s a chaotic use of the Pac-Man formula that fans of the series should enjoy.
Recommended Videos Originally released on November 17, 2020, Pac-Man Mega Tunnel Battle was touted as one of Stadia’s key exclusives. Like so many other games, it was nearly lost to time when Stadia shuttered on January 18, 2023. Since it was a true exclusive for the service, it seemed like fans would never get a chance to play it again. Thankfully, it’s back. And that’s good news, because the newly updated version is a fun multiplayer curiosity that deserved a second chance.
It’s also a bit more confusing. There’s a lot happening on screen, and the in-game tutorial only explains so much. Power-ups can appear in mazes from time to time. Some are straightforward, like an item that freezes ghosts in place. Others aren’t terribly well explained, which can make early battles feel a little hectic. Its scoring system can be hard to figure out too, as it’s not initially clear if players need to get the highest score to win or survive.
My best match came down to a long one-on-one duel where my rival and I spent a good 10 minutes battling it out in one maze. I kept trying to bait them into corners so I could grab a power pellet and chomp away one of their lives. It’s ruthless fun, though the endgame can drag once it’s down to two equally skilled players who don’t die easily . It’s not the most elegant version of Pac-Man, but it’s a great test of endurance for pros.
