Taiko no Tatsujin: Nintendo Switch Version!

Nintendo™ Switch – JAPAN

The 2018-released classic rhythm game, Taiko no Tatsujin: Nintendo Switch Version! will receive an upcoming update on August 19 as announced by Bandai Namco. And to make things even more interesting, this is going to be a free update. 

On August 19, Taiko no Tatsujin: Nintendo Switch Version! will be receiving a new feature called eSports Tournament mode. In case you missed it, this was revealed last month during the Drum ‘n’ Funs!’s 1 million sales celebration by Bandai Namco. 

The upcoming mode will feature an online competitive gameplay mode where players can choose from one of the four difficulty types such as Easy, Normal, Hard, and Extreme in the eight-player tournament. During the first match, a random song will be automatically picked from the song in the package. Meanwhile, for the second match, players can freely choose their preferred pre-selected “My Battle” song. 

And something to take note of, “My Battle” songs does not only include in-game songs but also allows players to use downloadable content songs. Aim to win both rounds to become the winner of the tournament and receive a gold medal! Worry not though runner-ups, you will also receive a silver medal. If you failed to finish the tournament, you can still watch the remaining players battle and cheer for them by sending heart marks. Kawaii! 

But, that’s not all!

Bandai Namco also revealed new songs for the game via paid DLCs due out on Aug-20 in Japan:

Single Song

  • “1-2-3” (from Pocket Monsters)

Rock Music Pack

  • “Nonsense Bungaku”
  • “ROCKET DIVE”
