[PS4-1] Taiko Ranked Match Event: Natsumono☆Fest


While we forgot to talk about the next Ranked Match event's announcement of two days ago, we're still in time to announce it on our blog before said event will actually start!

Running from July 5th to July 16th worldwide, the Natsumono☆Fest (ナツモノ☆フェス)  is set to replicate the reward ladder of the Uchuu SAMURAI event, handing out the song said event is titled after while throwing in more song-themed elements (Summer-themed, of course) as well as choice rewards from one of the first events of the game to boot.

Next-gen World Hobby Fair '19 Summer Postcards


We were going to keep it light on the reports from the Next-gen World Hobby Fair '19 Summer this weekend, given that the exhibiting cabinets will be set to only feature the AI Battle Performance mode (which is already publicly available). But then this happened.

In brief, event goers has found this following song in the Anime genre that is not available in public cabinets. Being only available in the exhibition floors, there is obviously no video for it, so we will only work off the snapshots of the song selection and result screens.

Song of the Week! 29 June 2019


We've had two newcoming Vocaloid songs this week that are not labeled as such in Taiko gaming. Why don't have a Vocaloid-Vocaloid Ura feature, then?

Twitter Snippets (June 21 2019): Hung-rock Hanging Out With The Katsu Medals


A Twitter Snippet post on Friday may lead you to think it's another "weekend warrior" style song addition, but not this time.

The thing happening on June 22 2019 is the addition of Hung-rock to the Katsu Medal Rewards Shop (what Asia), for those who weren't with us before Green ver. or not having finished off the Phoenix boss from the late Performance Battle mode back in Blue ver.
