Tanuki: Pon's Summer – A Whimsical Adventure Coming to Game Pass This Year

Microsoft has been increasingly invested in the Tokyo Game Show over the years, evident in the growing number of Japanese titles available for Xbox. The upcoming 2024 show in September showcased numerous surprises, including Tanuki: Pon's Summer.

This charming adventure features a delightful raccoon mailman whose job is to deliver letters. He also engages in various playful activities and assists individuals with different tasks. The unique premise becomes even more intriguing, as players will have the opportunity to fish, partake in baseball games, embellish a Tanuki Shrine, enjoy karaoke sessions, capture bugs, and much more.

At the recent ID@Xbox Showcase, attendees were treated to a fresh trailer for the game, confirming its availability available on Game Pass from the launch day. Tanuki: Pon's Summer is slated for release later this year across PC, Switch, and Xbox platforms. More details can be found in the new video accompanying the announcement.
