A new unannounced Taiko no Tatsujin game for Xbox has been discovered, thanks to new Xbox Achievements that have been spotted over on TrueAchievements.
While the new Xbox Achievements list has the game named “T Tablet_for XC”, if you peruse the achievements themselves you’ll see this is clearly a Taiko no Tatsujin game. Several of the achievements suggest the title of the game is actually Taiko no Tatsujin: The Drum Master, which Bandai Namco also filed a trademark for earlier last month.
If this game is actually released, it will be the first game in the series to ever be released on an Xbox console, as the series has only been in arcades, Nintendo and PlayStation consoles, as well as smartphones. The series has traditionally focused purely on its music-rhythm gameplay, with players hitting the notes at the correct time and getting a high score. Despite a focus on striking a taiko drum, the series has licensed a variety of music from classic Japanese tunes to modern pop hits like Utada Hikaru.
The most recent game in the series to be released is Taiko No Tatsujin: Rhythmic Adventure Pack, which is a bundle of Taiko No Tatsujin: Rhythmic Adventure 1 and Taiko No Tatsujin: Rhythmic Adventure 2. It was released back in December of last year for Nintendo Switch.
We’ll keep you guys posted.
