Pac-Man Games Going to Be Free-to-Play for Limited Time

Pac-Man has seen a major resurgence in popularity, and this new promotion from Xbox Game Pass will be perfect for fans of the yellow puck. As part of the Free Play Days, several Pac-Man games will be free to play over the weekend. Sadly, this does not include the newly released Shadow Labyrinth, the unique Metroidvania take on the iconic gaming figure. But it does include three delightful games that offer some of the best of Pac-Man. As these are only free for a limited time, players can check them out and then decide if they are worth a purchase afterward.

This weekend’s Free Play Days games on Xbox are Pac-Man Museum, Pac-Man World Re-Pac, and Pac-Man Mega Tunnel Battle: Chomp Chomp. These games will be free to play beginning on August 21st until August 24th. Each offers a different way to experience Pac-Man and is perfect for fans of the series.
