Animated skit introduces game collaboration from @officialpacman

The creator presents an animated short film where Pac-Man and the Fortnite character Fishstick are playing video games late at night. Their noise angers a wizard character, who uses a magic wand to transport them directly into the Fortnite game world. The video then transitions to in-game footage, showcasing a variety of new Pac-Man themed cosmetic items, including back bling, emotes, and Pac-Man himself as a character, all set to an upbeat, retro-style soundtrack.
