Namco Taiko Blog (September 18 2020): Accidentally Incompetent Battle Performance?

Hope you are having fun with the AI Battle Performance mode's grand return to arcade Taiko no Tatsujin! Sadly there are some unwelcome ruffles with the mode.

The latest iteration of the mode is supposed to unlock rewards (including songs, titles and outfit items) according to the number of wins you have achieved. However, it has been found that the game might sometimes unlock rewards before the required win count is achieved under certain circumstances. The Taiko Team is working towards preparing a fix to combat the error, and that will be applied to the firmware in the next version update (currently undated).

The next version update will also lock back all the wrongly unlocked titles and outfit items for which you haven't got the correct win count. The affected songs, meanwhile, will NOT be reverted and instead be unlocked for everyone in the following schedule:
  • 零の交響曲 Zero no Symphony (2 wins): 2020/10/17
  • いっそこのままで Isso Kono Mama de (125 wins): 2020/10/17
  • wonderful ROUTINE (250 wins): 2020/09/21
AI Battle Performance Mode Error Affected Songs

Title
NO
Zero no Symphony feat. Sariya-jin
零の交響曲/feat.サリヤ人
★3 ★4 ★6 ★8 ★10
NO
Isso Kono Mama de feat. Aizawa
いっそこのままで/feat.相沢
★4 ★6 ★7 ★9
NO wonderful ROUTINE ★5 ★6 ★8 ★10

In place of them, the Taiko Team will put in different songs for Donders to unlock for the same win counts in the next update. If you have already reached those win counts, simply play AI Battle Performance mode once after the update and you will get the new songs appropriately unlocked at the results screen.
