It's been confirmed that Don-chan, the main character from Namco's popular drum-based rhythm action game Taiko no Tatsujin, will be a playable character. There will also be a new track based on the Taiko no Tatsujin world.
This is nothing new for a Mario Kart Arcade GP game - previous entries in the series have also featured Namco Bandai characters, including Pac Man and Mametchi from Tamagotchi.
