"Gorillaz Release 'PAC-MAN' with an Assist from ScHoolboy Q". The arcade game portrays the band members as 8-bit characters, with 2-D as Pac-Man and Inky, Blinky, Pinky and Clyde replaced with the faces of Murdoc, Russel, and Noodle.The arcade cabinet artwork is sightly redrawn with 2-D as the ghost and Murdoc as Pac-Man.
The video incorporates many references to the arcade game, including: At the end of the video, Noodle goes down to the game room and unplugs the Pac-Man arcade game, leaving 2-D confused. As 2-D continues to play the arcade game for nine hours, all of his bandmates feel the effects of the arcade game, such as Murdoc looking outside his accumulator, Russel pausing from punching as though he heard something, and Noodle changing art styles, switching to an anime-esque style and then a Peanuts-like character. 2-D is in the game room playing the Pac-Man arcade game, Russel does some boxing with a punching bag, Murdoc is in the basement, sitting inside an orgone accumulator, and Noodle is on the recording studio couch with her mobile phone while Schoolboy Q records his verse. The video, directed by Jamie Hewlett, Tim McCourt, and Max Taylor, features the band members inside Kong Studios, the band's fictional headquarters. It was released to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the arcade game, Pac-Man. The song was recorded in London, prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The track was released on 20 July 2020 as the sixth single for Gorillaz' seventh studio album, Song Machine, Season One: Strange Timez, and the fifth episode of the Song Machine project, a web series involving the ongoing release of various Gorillaz tracks featuring different guest musicians over the course of 2020.
