The English, (traditional) Chinese and Korean versions of Taiko no Tatsujin Drum Session are now dated for release on October 26, 2017, the same day as the Japanese version. This is coming from the 2nd PVs in English (embedded above), Traditional Chinese and Korean just dropped on the official BNEI Asia YouTube channel this week.
We are only embedding the English trailer here, since it is the only one of the three that had gameplay footage re-recorded on some English version, outside reusing the live-action parts and audio from the Japanese trailer. And not just from the same taster version that people are seeing from conventions or events: this appears to be near full-release with DokuLO CANdy, Saitama 2000 and Mada Saitama 2000 on the song list, as well as VICTORIA in the Taiko Rank Match footage (complete with the facing alpaca costume).
While the song list has already been revealed by Taiko Team earlier and the alternate language versions appears to be safe in most regards, we do have have one new development from this announcement: The Classical ハンロック is put in English as Hung-rock on official press releases, which likely mean Hungarian Dance receiving the Tajima/Rock-omatopoeia treatment?
In other news, with Drum Session being Taiko no Tatsujin's grand return to Sony home console fronts, Sony has been putting this in their spotlight quite heavily, including PlayStation stage events in gaming conventions in greater Asia, as well as the PlayStation Experience event with exclusive producer appearance and this first clip ever of the Oni notechart for Tsunagare! Hirogare! Uchiagare! (★9, 776 notes):
Thanks Spotty Blue from the chatbox for the recording.
PS. We meant we couldn't justify well a standalone post just for this video, but a shout-out in tandem with other news is more than fine.
