The retro video game will allow Nintendo Switch players to go head-to-head online from April 7 in North America and April 8 in Europe in an epic battle against 99 players for a chance to become the top Pac player.

Players will also have access to special edition paid content, including classic themes and modes that allow users to play offline, as well as 17 individual downloadable content packs.

It comes after Nintendo offered gamers a chance to trial the Nintendo Switch Online for free alongside the Monster Hunter Rise demo in January.

The free trial expired on February 2 and consumers were only be able to redeem the offer one time. But unless they turned off the automatic renewal before that date, consumers have had their free trial converted into a one-month subscription.
