Pac-Man Reborn explores Pac evolution on mobile and Twitter

Namco Bandai teased the "next evolution" of Pac-Man earlier this month; now we think we have a pretty good idea of what game the publisher was talking about, if not exactly how the game works. The Japanese side of the company has announced Pac-Man Reborn, a mobile game based on the idea of building and evolving the ultimate Pac creature.

Players create their own Pac-Man thing in different colors, using parts like antlers and kebabs, then pit them against their friends, with the winner spawning a new Pac-Man thing. And somehow, this crazy mobile / iPhone game will interact with Twitter.

We expect to find out more about this game — like how to play it and what Namco is talking about — during the E3 Pac-Man party. A beta will be released in Japan tomorrow, marking the 30th anniversary of the original game.
