SWITCH EXCLUSIVE This feature is exclusive to the Nintendo Switch version of The Battle Cats |
- Not to be confused with Kabuto Cat (Special Cat) or Kuwagata Cat (Switch Special Cat).
Kabuto Cat is a Special Cat exclusive to the Nintendo Switch Version of The Battle Cats. In the Japanese Version, a leaflet was given out in the November 2019 CoroCoro Comics issue containing a serial code that players could redeem and unlock Kabuto Cat. In Version 1.0.6, it was made available for all players once logging into the game. New save files, however, must clear Korea from the Empire of Cats chapter. In the Southeast Asia Version, there is no known method to unlock said unit.
Note: You will need 4 MB of free space in order for it to be downloaded in your Nintendo Switch system.

Strategy/Usage[]
Since this unit is given away for free, it instantly becomes one of the best generalist units to help clear Empire of Cats since most enemies' raw strength is pitifully low. Once properly leveled, it can be used effectively as a specialized black meat shield thanks to its resistance ability. It is somewhat on the slow side so it will take time for it to reach to the frontlines and defend your units, but it creates a dense pack which can help stall incoming enemies. Since it is a CoroCoro collaboration unit, its XP costs are rather low and makes it easy to rank up.
Strategizing with this unit is again once simple: use when there are black enemies. Since its stats are tailored for more early phases of the game, it does become less viable in using this unit, especially if you already maxed out Tank Cat and Crazed Tank Cat. It unfortunately suffers in strategic use since its low base HP does hurt it in viability, but it works best in purely black stages such as XP Stage.
