If you're a fan of banging plastic drums then you'll be pleased to hear that we're getting another helping of Taiko No Tatsujin action on Switch later this year.
Taiko No Tatsujin: Rhythmic Adventure Pack brings two never-released-in-the-west Taiko no Tatsujin titles to Switch consoles on December 3rd, and will have players "honing their drumming skills on more than 130 songs and against more than 250 different monsters, bosses, and enemy drums, through various periods of history and into the future," in light-hearted RPG action. Players can recruit vanquished enemies to join their adventure, too.
The game is getting a physical release in the Far East but will be offered as a digital download in the west. Both of the bundled games Taiko No Tatsujin: Rhythmic Adventure and Taiko No Tatsujin: Rhythmic Adventure 2 – will be offered for individual download, too. They will, of course, work with the official drum controller, which launched alongside Taiko No Tatsujin: Drum 'n Fun.

Ha. We almost forgot about this upcoming game. We enjoyed Drum n'Fun on the Switch so this will almost certainly be purchased.
Preordered the physical version about a month ago. Pretty keen to have a reason to make more use of my drum controller.
This is shaping up to be a really packed holiday season for me. Lots to play! I do hope chibi dragon gets ported eventually so I don’t have to dig out my 3ds.
The original games had a super cool crossover that allowed you to play as Kirby and Touhou characters as well. I hope that's in this version too!
Drum and Fun is a masterpiece!
The party games are great rhythm games too!
No physical release, no drum, no deal! NA was already given the shaft with Drum n' Fun, I'm not putting up with that garbage a second time!
I bit the bullet and ordered the expensive drum controller. Assuming I get on with it, I'll be downloading these at launch!
If there isn't going to be a Western physical release, then I'll import the Asian one (though it's close to AU$90 and that's before tax/shipping 0.0).
Holy moley. A T rating for this?!
Perhaps the content explains why it's not getting an international physical release, though I can't imagine this being rated any higher than PG in Australia (and even that is pushing it, I think, as this sort of game could easily slide with a G rating back in the day).
As awesome this looks, I'll pass up on it for launch. It comes out five days prior to Puyo Puyo Tetris 2, which I'm far more excited for.
