A landmark in video
game history, the original Pac-Man arcade game developed by Namco was originally released in Japan on May 22, 1980. The game later released in North
America in October of 1980. There have been countless versions and spin-offs
of Pac-Man over the last three decades, and he's still one of the most
recognizable video game characters of all time. Pac-Man made his fighting game
debut in Street Fighter X Tekken and fights by controlling a "mech"
Mokujin. Pac-Man has also appeared
in the Super Smash Bros. series.

It's weird to
have Pac-Man in a proper fighting game... but somehow, such a historic character seems to make sense in the SF x TEKKEN universe (considering how zany the game is). I still can't believe I actually had to create a TFG
profile for Pac-Man (but it was fun). Pac's fighting style while riding his Moku-mech
is clever fan-service... but Pac's SFXT moveset isn't too interesting or
innovative. He's a generic character in that sense. His Super Art is weird, too. Laser beam to the groin ftw? :/ Ooook Capcom. However, Pac's Cross Art where he performs a giant-sized Pac-Man headbutt is pretty epic! Pac-Man should have a
solid headbutt attack. Makes perfect sense! ^o^
Fun Fact: Pac-Man's first crossover with
the fighting game universe was actually in the PS2 party game, Pac-Man Fever (released on GameCube / PS2
in 2002). The roster features playable TEKKEN & SoulCalibur characters. Not a bad party game, btw! I mained
Heihachi and
Asta. Below, enjoy a game of
Google Pac-Man, on me! FREE PLAY on TFG.
