Overview
- Developed by Bandai Namco, Shadow Labyrinth ties directly into Amazon Prime’s Secret Level episode by casting a cybernetic Pac-Man named Puck and an amnesiac Swordsman as protagonists in a dark sci-fi Metroidvania.
- The narrative weaves together Bandai Namco’s legacy titles—ranging from Bosconian Village to Splatterhouse—into a single canonical timeline as players hunt for keys to escape an alien labyrinth.
- Previews highlight core mechanics, including a strategic “devour” attack for harvesting enemy resources and an ESP gauge that, when depleted, forces a full recharge before special abilities can be used again.
- Combat demands precise parries and stamina management against brutal foes, while platforming sequences integrate Pac-Man lines of light for high-speed traversal and spring jumps.
- Shadow Labyrinth is set to launch on July 18, 2025 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2 and PC.
