...by that we mean that now the official Asia ver. Taiko no Tatsujin Facebook Fan Page announces the update on January 9 2019 one day earlier instead of zero days earlier. Yay progress?

Other Additions/Changes We Already Knew
You should know from our other coverage about the months of content that has since been left out, so here's the skinniest skinny:
- Ranking Dojo: Kurouto (NB. the original post did not mention "and up" for this point, hopefully typo)
- Blue ver. Winter Rewards Shop
- Performance Battle new stages: Tidal-roar Shore and Scorching Volcano (and all related story and deathblow additions) (NB. the original post only mentioned Hung-rock as unlockable but not Surf Zapping, hopefully typo)
- Event folders update
(who cares about them lel)
The Rare Asia-exclusive News
Also announced with this is the following song to be released on January 19 (Saturday). Recently weekend additions to AC0 are announced only one or two days before the thing, so the Japanese announcement would have happened next week, but cool that Asian Donders get the first news!

Apparently It Already Happened: Amusement IC Card
Remember the first coverage on the new Amusement IC Card system back in February 2018? Apparently it already happened since October 25 (source), has already been supported by Taiko no Tatsujin Blue ver. cabinets in Japan, and is also going to be supported by Asia ver. cabinets after the update tomorrow. What the, we never heard anything about it in any official Taiko media since...
Letting bygones be bygones, here is a general reminder what can and cannot be used on Taiko no Tatsujin arcade cabinets:
- Old Konami e-amusement pass cards (without the "Amusement IC" logo) still cannot be used on any version of Taiko AC0
- New Amusement IC cards (from all three makers) cannot be used on Yellow ver. or older version
- Old Banapassport and Aime cards (without the "Amusement IC" logo) are still supported on all versions as usual
