Bandai Namco arrived at The Game Awards 2024 with Shadow Labyrinth, a rather interesting and dark take on the classic Pac-Man. Forget about the innocent yellow ball swallowing dots.

Shadow Labyrinth is a two-dimensional metroidvania in which we play the role of a swordsman traversing a mysterious labyrinth. On the way, we will have to fight against hostile spirits, defeating which unlocks different powers.

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

Shadow Labyrinth is coming to PC (Steam) and PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch. The game will be released in 2025.
