Name the new ghost contest in Pac-Man Pop!

Bandai Namco Entertainment is planning to add a new ghost character to the PAC-MAN family, which will be made available exclusively for the company’s Pac-Man game PAC-MAN Pop! The game is a free-to-play arcade mobile game available on the App Store and Google Play.

With the addition of the new ghost comes a naming contest whereby fans will be able to vote for their favourite name for the new ghost. The character is described as smart, stylish, playful and brings tons of fun puzzles with her all-new Challenge Mode and mega rewards.

There are four options to choose from in the fan vote, which are:

  • Winky
  • Bonnie
  • Violet
  • Dot

Voting closes on February 22nd, 2017, at 11:59PM PST. The winning name will be revealed soon along with fun features and new challenging puzzles to kickoff her inclusion in the game. You can click here to vote.

“We’re so happy to add a new member to the PAC-MAN family! Over the three decades since PAC-MAN was first released into arcades, it became a worldwide sensation and the PAC-MAN series entered the hearts of millions of people worldwide. By deciding her name, players can now make this character their own.” Chief PAC-MAN Officer Makoto Asanuma. “Whether it’s Winky, Bonnie, Violet or Dot, she’ll be embraced as a new member of the PAC-MAN family, and we’re excited for gamers to meet her in PAC-MAN Pop on their mobile devices.”

Pac-Man Pop isn’t your typical Pac-Man game and is instead a 3-bubble match game. The game is free-to-play with in app purchases.
