Taiko No Tatsujin: Rhythm Festival Receives Spring & Summer Updates

Bandai Namco will finally be giving Taiko no Tatsujin: Rhythm a proper update, totally free, with a bunch of content from different IPs.


Bandai Namco has released new content this past week for Taiko no Tatsujin: Rhythm Festival, as the Spring and Summer updates are now live for you to play. The game has been out since late September 2022 and has kinda just been humming along, releasing DLC packs that you can add to the game featuring music from other franchises. But there really hasn't been a proper "update" to the game beyond some bug fixing until now. In this brand new, totally free pack of content, you'll get four new outfit items for DON-Chan, including Godzilla, Evangelion Unit-01, Ultraman, and Kamen Rider. They have also added a new background that is available in the single-player mode, with characters from the Shin Japan Heroes Universe making their appearance known. The pack is also coming with a new title from Yoko Takahashi as you'll be getting "Crime and Punishment – Those who are unwilling to pray." No official date was put on it, just that it was coming "soon," but you can see the latest trailer for it all below.
