ATARI 2600+ PAC-MAN EDITION OUT NOW

Two icons. One legacy. The chase begins again.

Sydney, Australia, December 12, 2025: Atari and PLAION REPLAI are proud to announce that the Atari 2600+ PAC-MAN Edition, a brand-new version of the legendary console inspired by one of gaming’s most recognisable icons, is out now.

THE RETURN OF A CLASSIC

The Atari 2600+ PAC-MAN Edition is a lovingly reimagined take on the console that defined home gaming for a generation. Now finished in signature PAC-MAN yellow and featuring illuminated character icons across the front panel, this collector’s edition combines authentic retro design with modern features including HDMI output, USB-C power, and multiple display modes (4:3/16:9).

Included in every box is the PAC-MAN Double Feature cartridge, giving players two ways to relive the arcade chase that started it all:

·       PAC-MAN 2600 – The original home console version that introduced millions to PAC-MAN’s maze-chase magic.

·       PAC-MAN 7800 – A brand-new, arcade-style version faithfully recreated for the modern era.

Each console also includes a PAC-MAN CX-40+ Wireless Joystick (Yellow) — a bold reimagining of Atari’s most iconic controller.

A CELEBRATION OF GAMING’S GREATEST ICONS

In addition to the console, fans can also collect the PAC-MAN CX-40+ Wireless Joysticks, available separately in five vibrant colours inspired by PAC-MAN and the ghosts — Yellow (PAC-MAN), Red (Blinky), Pink (Pinky), Blue (Inky), and Orange (Clyde). Each joystick retails for $59.95.

“The Atari 2600+ PAC-MAN Edition is where nostalgia meets new life,” said Ben Jones, Commercial Director at PLAION REPLAI. “By bringing two of gaming’s most enduring icons together, we’ve created a piece of history that doesn’t just look the part — it plays beautifully too. It’s the perfect way to rediscover simple fun in a complex world.”

“Atari and PAC-MAN both defined what it meant to play,” added Wade Rosen, CEO of Atari. “This release celebrates that shared legacy — and the endless joy of the chase that continues to inspire generations.”

STYLED TO DISPLAY. BUILT TO PLAY.

The Atari 2600+ PAC-MAN Edition and the PAC-MAN CX-40+ Wireless Joysticks are available now from leading retailers worldwide and Atari.com, priced at $269.99 and $59.95, respectively.
