Namco Taiko Blog 2 (20 June 2019) - WHF '19 Summer and Taiko Green's End-June Update (The Whole Deal)


We've already heard of the next song removal pool and the brand-new AI Battle Performance's debut (with related unlockables) as the most prominent features in the next Taiko arcade update.

Today, however, we come to know about what else has been left over to be covered!

New licensed songs are coming up, one of which being also revealed to make the PS4 jump earlier today! With the picture below, we do also learn that the song is heading to the Nintendo Switch Taiko title later this Summer, on September 5th.

What a timely way for us to correct our earlier naming mistake... No Norse deities are involved in this song's title!

Together with these are also coming a couple of songs from Kizuna AI, a virtual Youtube Let's Player who is about to celebrate her birthday on Taiko in a grand ole way! Both songs are set to be featured in their own custom folder, too.
