VW has announced that it is expanding its video game offerings in selected models, with the title “Pac-Man Championship Edition” becoming available on the “AirConsole” app.
In this way, passengers in models from the electric ID range equipped with the ID. Software 4.0 operating system, as well as the new Tayron, Tiguan, Passat, and Golf, can use the vehicle’s infotainment screen, when parked, to play the popular “Pac-Man.”
Using a smartphone as a controller, the player will have to continue fleeing from ghosts and eating all the dots in the maze, as well as the power pellets that have been redesigned, now appearing as silhouettes of the iconic VW Beetle, Bus, and fourth-generation Golf.
The “AirConsole” is the world’s first gaming platform specifically designed for cars. The app can turn compatible VW vehicles into a gaming room.
To play while the vehicle is parked, it is necessary to have a VW ID account, an active VW Connect Plus contract, and an internet connection on the smartphone.
The “AirConsole” app for the car can be downloaded from the In-Car Shop for the infotainment system before it can be used for the first time.
