Back in 2020, the Taiko no Tatsujin series first came over to the West with their Rhythmic Adventure Pack. Now, Bandai Namco and Nintendo have announced something that rhythm players and gaming drummers alike can look forward to; a new title from the series that doesn’t include any story mode or RPG adventure. In Taiko no Tatsujin: Rhythm Festival, players put their rhythmic skills to the test with an extensive library of over 76 bopping beats ranging from classical to popular hit songs.
Additionally, Taiko no Tatsujin: Rhythm Festival features two new gameplay modes. In DON-chan Band Mode, players can take part in a 4-player live concert and jam out together. In the Great Drum Toy War Mode, players will be able to face-off against each other to decide who is the ultimate drumming master! Of course, these titles can be played with the buttons, movement controls in the joycons, or with a specialized drum that can be purchased separately for the game.
Taiko no Tatsujin: Rhythm Festival will be releasing exclusively on the Nintendo Switch later in 2022. Will you be ready to test your timing and rhythmic skill when it comes out?
