See the Death Stranding 2 Pizza Chef Pac-Man Minigame

During the Death Stranding World Strand Tour 2 in Tokyo live showcase, Hideo Kojima and Mamoru Oshii also showed off the Pac-Man minigame present in the game. This is unlocked after reaching and spending time with The Pizza Chef prepper during the main campaign, whose character model is based on the Ghost in the Shell and Urusei Yatsura director. During the presentation, we see the moment that Pac-Man becomes available. Sam is at The Pizza Chef’s place and a pizza shaped like the Bandai Namco icon comes up. Sam eats a slice of it. We hear the sound effects from the game, and his Ring Terminal then shows the Pac-Man and Ready icons. We then get to see what it is like to play Pac-Man in-game, learn that eating BTs there eliminates them on the map, and see Bandai Namco actually allowed this. It’s part of the 45th anniversary celebration. Here’s the full showcase that highlights the Pac-Man minigame at The Pizza Chef bunker in Death Stranding 2 from Kojima Productions' YouTube account. That part starts at the 1:19:38 mark. https://youtu.be/yiRsfrNsA1Y?t=4778 And here are screenshots showing the Pac-Man-shaped pizza and the minigame.
