Namco Taiko Blog (2023/05/23): Ranking Dojo 2023, Livestream and Rainbow Internationalization

 

May 2023 possibly feels a bit chiller on Taiko no Tatsujin Nijiiro ver. than other months, what with the Golden Week break and all. The latest Taiko no Tatsujin official blog put a few things to look forward to in the next month.

Ranking Dojo 2023, the First Sighting
Etou reveals the first partial setlist for Ranking Dojo 2023 geared for a June 2023 release. Slots with a red diamond will be where one of the previously teased candidate tracks go. DragonRatTiger has put together a quick English translation on Twitter if you need it.


Taiko no Tatsujin Official Livestream: 2023/06/18
If you are starting to miss Etou and Kimizu's faces, you would be glad to hear that another official livestream will happen in about 3 weeks' time. Expect news on collabs, track additions and answers to Donders' burning questions (which you can submit here).

March 2020/Nijiiro ver. Tracks Breaking Japan Exclusivity
While there has not been an actual version update to Nijiiro ver. in May 2023, cabinets outside of Japan now have a breather to catch up the content disparity. 28 tracks will be available worldwide plus one track still exclusive to greater Asia after your local operator finishes the required manual update procedures.

For some reason, there are reports that the Ura Oni notecharts of Habit and Phony were not available at the same time to overseas cabinets.
Addendum (2023/05/25): Official Asia ver. Facebook Page confirms the two Ura Oni notecharts missing is an unintentional error and will be fixed in the future.
