Taiko no Tatsujin is a series you may not have heard about before, but it's a popular series of rhythm action games in Japan where you typically play to the beat of the music with a literal drum controller. A version has been available on PS4 since last year, but it's finally heading West on 2nd November 2018.

Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum Session Drum Controller PS4 PlayStation 4

Unfortunately, neither the North American or European PlayStation Blogs make mention of the drum controller. In fact, the European blog specifies a digital release, meaning there may not be a physical version of the game at all. Whatever the case, Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum Session is set to feature songs from Disney movies, Tekken, Ridge Racer, and plenty more.

This is the first time in the history of the series that it's coming to Western shores. We hope that the controller launches alongside it, as it would be a shame to have to play on a standard DualShock 4. Do you like the look of Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum Session?
