Beatbuddy: Tale of the Guardians is a rhythm-adventure game developed by Threaks, an indie studio that specializes in single-title IPs. The game is available on Xbox One and falls under the action category. The game's universe includes another title, Beatbuddy: On Tour, with the same world but different beats and levels.

The game's plot is straightforward and revolves around saving Music from the Maestro Prince, who wants to destroy all beats in the universe. Along with elegant beats, the player encounters NPC and bosses that need to be defeated. The gameplay includes typical platforming and adventure sections; players float around six worlds, each divided into five parts, collecting beat parts. One of the game's exciting features is the unique musical theme for each main character, with the soundtrack composed of different tunes, making it a remarkable highlight.
