As of today, the new Bandai Namco logo has gone live and prompted hilarious reactions from fans and gamers alike. Since Namco's release of Pac-Man in the 1980s and its eventual combination with toy manufacturer Bandai, Bandai Namco has become one of the world's most well-known companies in gaming. The company recently saw considerable success by publishing FromSoftware's Elden Ring, which has become 2022's best-selling game and continues to get positive reception to this day.

The multinational video game publisher explained in its press release that its new purpose could be summed up in the statement "Fun for All into the Future."
