Taiko no Tatsujin: Rhythm Festival is out nowvia Steam, where it offers over 70 songs to drum through, and a subscription service through which to unlock over 700 more. Maybe I should try to get my Donkey Konga drums working on PC, but I’ll probably settle for playing it with a gamepad.
The previous game in the series, Taiko no Tatsujin: The Drum Master, came to PC butonly via Game Pass and the Windows store for some reason. Rhythm Festival is the first to arrive on Steam.
It features the usual mixture of modes, practice sessions, online multiplayer, and several difficulty levels. If you’re hungry for more than the songs included in the base game, you can expand your selection with the Taiko Music Pass for a monthly fee, or buy tracks via DLC packs. You can getTank! from Cowboy BebopviaAnime Pack Vol. 2, for example. Everyone listen to Tank! now.
If you’re tempted, it’s worth givingthe demo a whirl on Steamfirst to see whether the difficulty, setlist, and somewhat grindy structure appeal to you.
