Electronic Arts and Namco announce that the European version of R: Racing for the GameCube will ship with a free copy of Pac-Man vs. next month.

Electronic Arts and Namco have today announced that the European version of R: Racing for the GameCube will ship with a free copy of Shigeru Miyamoto's Pac-Man vs. The multiplayer version of Pac-Man, which is exclusive to the GameCube, was also given away with other games in North America when it was released in December last year.

"We are very excited to have a new addition to the Pac-Man family," said Kevin Yanagihara, director of Namco. "By incorporating this classic character with the unique connectivity features of both the Game Boy Advance and GameCube, players are offered a new style of gameplay that will bring them closer to the competition than ever before."

R: Racing is currently scheduled for release in Europe on March 26. For more information, check out our previous coverage of the game.
