Taiko no Tatsujin Rhythm Connect (Japanese: 太鼓の達人 リズムコネクト, Taiko no Tatsujin Rizumukonekuto) was a mobile game released in most of East Asia for IOS and Android devices by Bandai Namco Entertainment and LINE Corportation on November 1st, 2023. It was the third Taiko no Tatsujin game released on mobile platforms after Taiko no Tatsujin Pop Tap Beat. The online servers were taken down and the game itself was removed from the IOS and Google App Stores on December 2nd 2024, only more than a year after its initial release.
Gameplay[]
The Gameplay of Rhythm Connect plays the same as the other mobile Taiko games, however, Rhythm Connect plays in portrait mode, instead of the usual landscape mode. Due to being in portrait mode, some songs would have the option to have animated backgrounds and jacket art.
Songs[]
Rhythm Connect has more than 600 songs. All 600 songs do not need to be unlocked, however in classic Free-to-Play form, each song requires watching an ad to play (granted you didn't have any tickets or weren't subscribed to the in-game subscription model).
W.I.P.
