When I reviewed the first Pac-Man World remake, 2022’s Pac-Man World: Re-Pac, I found it to be a competent remake of a cult classic that, whilst loved by a lot of people due to nostalgia, isn’t and has never particularly been a groundbreaking title in the platforming genre. What I remember is that people liked the sequel, Pac-Man World 2, a lot more than the original. The announcement of another Re-Pac remake, this time for the 2002 title, was the perfect opportunity for me to see if said...

Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac is short and sweet, offering a chance for those that missed a fun 3D platformer to play it, and enjoy the charm and well designed levels.

Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac is a solid remake and a completely serviceable platformer that I thoroughly enjoyed playing through. It’s a bit on the basic side and has some goofy voice acting, but anyone who enjoys 3D platformers will have a fun weekend with this one.

For all its missteps, Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac is an agreeable 3D platformer from yesteryear. While hardly in the same league as Mario, Crash, or Astro Bot, it's served at just the right price for those pursuing a nostalgic diet. Approach accordingly, and you may just walk away from this classic meal with a full stomach.

Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac is a remake of one of the most popular Pac-Man games of all time, taking the iconic character on a journey across Pac-Land, with classic 3D platformer game play blending fun fast action and memorable boss battles with clever nostalgic nods to classic original.

Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac is a fun platformer that recalls the many great titles of its era. The introduction of new mechanics helps each region feel distinct, even if the overall design remains conventional. This remake adds thoughtful quality-of-life features that enhance the experience, though not enough to warrant its price point. Still, it’s a charming adventure that offers plenty for both newcomers and returning fans, and a nostalgic reminder of a time when the genre truly thrived.

I don’t want to let my moan about the final boss overshadow the review. There’s still a fun game here, and a lovely remaster of a well-loved platformer. The things it does well — the personality of Pac-Man, friends, and enemies in the cut scenes, the variety in the gameplay — shine brightly. For those with nostalgia for the original, I’m sure you’ll enjoy your ‘Re-Pac’-aged version. It’s been made with love. For non-fans, however, this is a more difficult purchase to justify. Arguably, the price is a little steep for what’s on offer, and some lingering retro-frustrations in the execution of th...

Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac is the new remaster from Bandai Namco. You can read in the review whether this remaster can match the success of Shadow Labyrinth.

While best known for his arcade roots, Pac-Man's PlayStation history is arguably best defined by the Pac-Man World trilogy.
