No, the description says raccoon. I actually compared the character to a tanuki, and its definitely a raccoon. Tanuki's are fluffier, more brown, rounder, and don't have rings on their tails. I'm actually surprised people get them confused, the only thing they have in common is their face pattern.

"Tanuki Sunset Classic is a third-person longboard-skating game where players play as a raccoon skating downhill on a procedurally generated synthwave-themed seaside road."
