Don-chan is back!

Earlier this year during a Nintendo Direct presentation, Taiko no Tatsujin: Rhythm Festival was announced for Switch. Now, in an update, Bandai Namco has confirmed the game will be arriving on 23rd September worldwide.


As previously mentioned, there'll be 76 songs included, plus an in-game subscription service - giving players access to over 500 songs at launch. One of the tracks even includes an orchestral version of the main theme from The Legend of Zelda. Here's some PR from the original announcement:
