Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum ‘n’ Fun will be delisted after November 2023. Bandai Namco announced that it will discontinue digital and physical sales of the series’ first Nintendo Switch entry on November 30, 2023 at 11:59 PM in each region’s time zone.
People who access the game’s Japanese official site will now be greeted with a splash page containing the delisting announcement. Bandai Namco’s Southeast Asian branch also posted the announcement in English on its official X (ex-Twitter) account:
Drum ‘n’ Fun is the first Taiko no Tatsujin entry for Nintendo Switch. Bandai Namco gradually released the title worldwide throughout 2018. The game received additional modes like Don Katsu Fight, Online Ranking Match, and eSports Tournament with post-release updates. The company also added DLC songs from various franchises, including Pokemon and Undertale. Players will still be able to download the latest update patch and purchase in-game DLCs even after Bandai Namco has delisted the main game.
Bandai Namco has since also released Taiko no Tatsujin: Rhythmic Adventure Pack in 2020 and Taiko no Tatsujin: Rhythm Festival in 2022. While the former is a remastered compilation of two Nintendo 3DS games, Bandai Namco touted Rhythm Festival as the successor to Drum ‘n’ Fun. In this delisting announcement, the company also suggests Drum ‘n’ Fun! players move on to Rhythm Festival.
Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum ‘n’ Fun is available digitally on Nintendo Switch until November 30, 2023. Physical copies of the game will still be purchasable and playable, but they will be harder to find after Bandai Namco stops producing new copies on the same day.
