It’s time to grab your bag of pennies and head off to the arcade as Bandai Namco have dropped a quadruple offering of classic arcade titles on to Xbox One.

Available for download right now are Pac-Man, Ms Pac-Man, Galaga and Dig Dug. Each will set you back a measly £3.19 but should you be looking for a reason to go all misty eyed and retro, then we’re not sure anything else will suffice.

You can grab each of them by visiting the Xbox One Games Store on the following links.

An Xbox gamer since 2002, I bought the big black box just to play Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee. I have since loved every second of the 360's life and am now just as obsessed with the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S - mostly with the brilliant indie scene that has come to the fore. Gamertag is neil363, feel free to add me to your list.
