Chuck E. Cheese has announced Chuck’s Arcade, a new concept blending classic and modern games with iconic animatronic characters.

“Chuck E. Cheese has spent decades mastering the arcade experience — it’s in our DNA,” says David McKillips, CEO of Chuck E. Cheese. “Thanks to the expertise of our talented technicians and the successful transformation of almost 500 fun centers worldwide, we’ve built the operational and creative foundation to take our brand beyond our traditional four walls.

“Chuck’s Arcade is a natural evolution — an opportunity to extend our arcade legacy into new formats that engage both lifelong fans and a new generation through a curated mix of retro classics and cutting-edge experiences.”
