The next game in Namco’s “Generations” series of creatively updated retro games may be a Rally-X revival. Siliconera found a European trademark for “Rally-X Rumble,” filed at the end of last month.
In case you never explored the filler games on your Namco Museum collections, Rally-X was a top-down maze game, essentially Pac-Man with cars, released in arcades in 1980. Players collect flags around the maze, while avoiding red enemy cars and stunning them with smokescreens.
No matter how weird you might think it is to bring this game back, it’s still not the weirdest revival. That’s Dancing Eyes. Aero-Cross follows pretty closely.
