Cooking Mama Cookstar sued Office Create Planet Entertainment

Office Create, the developer behind Cooking Mama, has sued Planet Entertainment related to various issues surrounding Cooking Mama: Cookstar.

Around the time of the game’s release, the two companies were battling over the title. Office Create said Cooking Mama: Cookstar was released against the company’s request. Going further into things, Office Create felt it didn’t meet quality standards and a PS4 version was marketed even though it was not a part of the original licensing agreement.

Bandai Namco has released a new version 1.2.2 update for Taiko no Tatsujin: Rhythm Festival. On top of that, the latest DLC songs are available as part of the Taiko Music Pass.

The full patch notes for the update are as follows:
