Today, publisher BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment announced their collaboration with Epic Games, bringing a wave of PAC-MAN content that is now available in ‘Fortnite’ as part of “Chapter 7 Season 4: Override”.

Players will be able to take on new Mecha Ghost Mini Bosses, obtain a Sprite companion, and enlist the interactive PAC-MAN Sidekick on their quests. The new additions top off PAC-MAN cosmetics, landmarks and other content that have been appearing around the island since the launch of Override.

Players can now take on menacing Mecha Ghosts, fearsome Mini Bosses based on the original PAC-MAN pixelated design who roam the Fortnite island. Players will encounter Mecha Ghosts across the map, with heightened spawn rates on the newly added PAC-MAN themed islands. When defeated, the Mini-Bosses drop high-tier mythic loot.

Players can also unlock the new PAC-MAN Sprite companion based on Blinky from the PAC-MAN: Snack Breaks™ animated YouTube series. Acquired by following instructions at the in-game Cheat Panel, this gameplay companion grants a special passive ability that cloaks the player and provides invincibility upon taking damage. PAC-MAN-themed Mecha Ghosts and Sprites will be in-game now through 31 October, 2026.

From September 19th to 25th, players can grab the limited-time PAC-MAN Sidekick in the Fortnite Item Shop alongside a full collection of arcade cosmetics. The PAC-MAN Sidekick serves as an invincible animated buddy that runs next to player characters during matches and features a Sidekick Emote, authentic arcade music jingles, and sound effects. The Item Shop collection also features the PAC-MAN Back Bling, which cycles from Cherry to Orange to Galaxian™ as players land eliminations, as well as the PAC-MAN Gloves Pickaxe, new Kicks footwear, and more.

These new additions build upon the gaming legends inspired Override seasonal content already live in-game, including the PAC-MAN Island, BLINKY Island, and PINKY Island map locations. Fans can find Easter eggs throughout the map, such as PAC-MAN-themed arcade machines and clouds shaped like PAC-MAN and the Ghosts.

Fortnite is available as a free-to-play platform title, featuring a popular battle royale experience. The game can be played across PC, consoles, cloud, and mobile platforms.
