Bandai Namco is catering to fans of Pac-Man with an exciting year-long celebration to honor the iconic character’s 45th birthday. This series of festivities includes:

• Museum Displays: A special exhibit at the Museum of Pop Culture in Seattle will run from April 30 to June 4, showcasing Pac-Man’s history.
• Interactive Experiences: A unique “Pac-Man live experience” will allow attendees to participate in a life-sized maze in Manchester, UK.
• Official Cookbook: An official Pac-Man cookbook featuring what it describes as “a maze of imaginative recipes” is set to be released.

The press release humorously questions, “Ever wonder what a Ghost or Power Pellet tastes like?” The cookbook is marketed as containing energy-filled snacks and hearty dinners. Excitement is building as the cookbook is scheduled to launch on May 13, coinciding with the celebrations.

For more details, fans can keep an eye on announcements as Bandai Namco has promised more surprises throughout this iconic year.
