The presence of the Taiko franchise in the greater gaming landscape doesn't stop ar the multi-platform release reveal of Rhythm Festival, as word has just spread out of the franchise joining some more contest-mased music gaming action right as its end results are about to wind up: the 2024 edition of the Cosmic Radio. I swear to whatever deity our reading audience is revering the most that I have NOT planned my writing in any shape of form by briefly touching on it as part of the latest SotW piece, but seeing as Taiko no Tatsujin is now revealed to be a participating member of this project, we might as well fully commit to this and talk what's about this in a nutshell!

In short, this was the second in a music-game-aimed song contests line started by PeroPeroGames (of Muse Dash fame), calling its participants to produce an original song of theirs and share it online via the most popular video-sharing websites, always with a dedicated hashtags to be easily grouped together. Eligible submissions were gathered earlier this year from February 29th to April 29th, with the (soon-to-be-revealed) winners not only being awarded a number of physical goodies, but even being given the chance to have their song be featured in one (or more) of the participating otoge game-developing partners if found fitting to their respective game setting, regardless of being awarded any of the physical awards on display or not. Bandai Namco is the latest partner to join the ranks with Taiko no Tatsujin, enjoying on the project the unique company of... well, these companies to boot:

• PeroPeroGames (Muse Dash)
• Pigeon Games (Phigros; Rizline)
• Rayark Games (Cytus series; Deemo series; VOEZ)
• 7th Beat Games (Rhythm Doctor; A Dance of Fire and Ice)
  

Contest entries were uploaded on either bilibili or YouTube, with the latter platform's entries all having the #CosmicRadio2024 tag and the allegiance to the contest on their title, so you know what to look for if you want to dig in across contestant entries! The songs to be adopted inside the participating rhythm gaming families will all be revealed in a dedicated "Results Announcement Special Program" livestream, to go live on date and applicable platforms yet to be revealed. More information about the Cosmic Radio's 2024 run can be found on its dedicated website as well.

As you can read by the reveal tweet, some input from the now-joining Taiko Team's franchise was also fished for, to which its lead Etou gladly engaged with...
