[⌊Yarbo x PAC-MAN Limited-Edition⌉⌊Yarbo x PAC-MAN Limited-Edition⌉[ Yarbo x PAC- MAN Limited-Edition **A Different Kind of Maze** For generations, PAC-MAN has made navigating a Maze feel like play. Yarbo is turning winter yard care into a different kind of Maze. When snow becomes the challenge, homeowners can experience winter with less work and more play. Where Every Maze Becomes a Path. By taking on the complexity of snow-covered yards, Yarbo helps turn an unpredictable winter environment into a clear, navigable space, giving homeowners more freedom to enjoy the season instead of managing it. For longtime PAC-MAN fans, the collaboration offers a new way to reconnect with a game that defined a generation of arcade culture. For a younger generation discovering PAC-MAN through a new lens, it introduces the character and spirit of the classic game into a modern technology experience. **Built to Clear the Way** The modular robotic platform takes on a range of winter challenges. Yarbo Snow Blower Gen 2 is designed to autonomously navigate outdoor environments and clear snow with minimal hands-on intervention. Its tracked platform, RTK-GPS positioning and intelligent path planning enable the system to navigate designated areas while carrying out snow-clearing tasks. The Snow Blower uses a two-stage snow-throwing system and is built for different winter conditions, including deep and wet snow. Yarbo also supports automatic recharging and resume-from-interruption functionality, allowing the system to continue its work without requiring homeowners to repeatedly manage the machine. Engineered as part of Yarbo’s modular outdoor robotics platform, the system reflects the company’s broader approach to year-round yard care. Yarbo’s platform is engineered for operating temperatures ranging from -25°C to 45°C and carries an IPX6 water- resistance rating, supporting a product strategy that extends from summer lawn maintenance to winter snow removal. **The Spirit of Play** The Yarbo x PAC-MAN collaboration is designed to bring a sense of personality to a category traditionally defined by utility. More than a limited-edition design, the collaboration reflects Yarbo’s broader vision for outdoor living: technology can take care of the work without taking away the enjoyment of the space itself. By bringing robotics, play and recognizable pop culture together, Yarbo is making yard care feel less like a chore—and more like a natural part of modern life. "We built Yarbo so the technology does the hard work and people get their snow days back." said Kenneth Kohlmann, Co-Founder, Yarbo. "Working with PAC-MAN lets us show the other side of that promise: clearing the driveway can actually be fun." "PAC-MAN adds fun and nostalgia to Yarbo’s robotic snow-clearing system, bringing fond memories to what used to be a chore as gamers who remember chomping Pac-Dots around the Maze can now watch him Chomp snow off their property," said Susan Tran, Sr. Director, Brand Development on PAC-MAN, Bandai Namco Entertainment America Inc. **Limited Edition Availability** The Yarbo x PAC-MAN limited edition pairs the Y40 Core with the Snow Blower Gen 2 and will be available exclusively in the United States and Canada through Yarbo’s official website and Amazon. The complete system will be available for $6,399 USD in the U.S. and C$8,799 in Canada.
