[xBox/PC] - The Drum Master's First Additional Content Plan


A little over one month in, the Microsoft-friendly Taiko no Tatsujin debut game is ready to welcome additional tracks through a line of pack-grouped DLCs like former games before it, effectively starting from... today!

Following the Session de Dodon ga Don model, The Drum Master's additional songs can be either purchased as standalone packs or in bundles of consecutive DLCs via the Beat Pass (ビートパス), named as 'Taiko Beat Pass' for the non-JP release. Pricing for the song packs currently ranges from 440 JPY/3.99$/3.99€ for 3-song packs, 490 JPY/4.49$/4.49€ for 5-song packs and 2420 JPY/19.99$/19.99€ for a Beat Pass (all tax-included fees).

The picture below, taken from the Beat Pass DLC page on TDM's official website, further illustrates the rundown of a Beat Pass: each of these will hold 24 songs, getting released across three consecutive months on a monthly basis. This month's two packs are all arcade/console returning picks from both Bandai Namco games and Studio Ghibli's discography, with March and April's packs for the first Beat Pass still yet to be revealed.
