Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum 'n' Fun! is getting a real life drum set in Europe

Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum ‘n’ Fun! is getting a drum set with its European release, spelling out some good news for western fans of the game. Bandai Namco revealed that the game will be getting both a digital and physical release. There’s no word on whether the drum kit will be making the journey across the Atlantic to North America, but here’s hoping.

The company also shared the game’s full tracklist, giving you a taste of what you can look forward to this fall. It’s looking pretty faithful to Taiko no Tatsujin’s arcade versions, with a healthy mix of J-Pop, anime, video game, and vocaloid titles, among others.


Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum ‘n’ Fun! was announced last month for Nintendo Switch. It’s the first western version of the popular game in quite some time, and will closely resemble versions of the game seen in Japanese arcades. Players can choose from a long list of songs across a variety of genres, playing to the rhythm with either the Switch Joy-Con controllers or the newly revealed drum peripheral.

Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum ‘n’ Fun is out on November 2.
