About BAKERU
Disaster strikes Japan. It all begins when Bakeru the Tanuki meets Sun from the Issun clan on a stormy night. Caught up in a scourge that threatens the entire country, Bakeru learns that Oracle Saitaro and his Festival Troops are using a bizarre festival to take over Japan. Determined to bring peace back to his homeland, Bakeru embarks on an epic journey with Sun across Japan’s 47 prefectures.
In this 3D action game, players take on the role of Bakeru, battling the diabolical Festival Troops and restoring peace to Japan. Featuring battles against fairy tale heroes and giant robots, players can fight back using a taiko drum. With a Henge license, players can also use the Tanuki’s power of transformation to shapeshift into different forms. The game offers a vibrant and dynamic atmosphere, with challenging stages that showcase the unique characteristics of each Japanese region.
