Arknights CN x Taiko no Tatsujin Collaboration Brings Skins, Music, and Festive Items on July 23

Drummers and Doctors unite! A new rhythm is coming to Arknights CN as Hypergryph officially revealed their second wave of collaboration with Bandai Namco’s Taiko no Tatsujin. The event kicks off on July 23 till August 12, bringing skins, goodies, and a limited-time event for fans of both to enjoy.

The Taiko Drums raid Arknights

In this Arknights side of the collab, players can look forward to a festive new set of skins and themed content inspired by Taiko no Tatsujin. This includes:

• Bustling Festival outfit for Myrtle operator

• Limited furniture set: “Festival Taiko Game Room”
• Special chibi sticker heads for Skadi the Corrupting Heart and Mizuki, shown holding Taiko drums

• Themed avatars, chat stickers, main menu background, and profile UI theme

• A limited-time event, available from July 22 until August 5

The skin features lively fireworks, lanterns, and Don-chan cameos—all stylized in a playful Taiko Matsuri (festival) theme. Players can earn or purchase these limited items during the collab event.

The collab is also a two-way event, and Taiko no Tatsujin arcade players will receive content from the Arknights universe in terms of playable Arknights tracks, Break Through the Dome, and Radiant.

These high-energy songs will be playable at participating Taiko no Tatsujin arcade machines in Japan and select regions.

This current collaboration is only available for CN server players, so the global players will have to wait for a new patch update in the future. Make sure to keep up with the latest news by following their X page.
