The Main Menu is the first screen that the player will see when booting up The Battle Cats.
The language menu
When the game starts, the player is greeted with a language option and is able to choose their preferred language to play in. The language options range from: English, French, Italian, German, Spanish and Thai. After choosing one of the options, the player is then greeted with a message:
- "※After changing display Language, additional required data will be downloaded.
If you are not connected to a stable Wi-fi environment,
you may incur additional charges from your network data plan. - ※ This process will not delete your Save Data."
Once agreeing to the language option, the game will download the games files. Once finished a message will appear:
- "The Battle Cats" is completely free to play. However, please be aware that there is paid content.
The intro will play with the option to skip or not. After the intro has ended or been skipped, the player must agree to the Application License Agreement, Privacy Policy and input their date of birth.

Trivia[]
- As of version 12.0, waiting on the Main Menu for long enough will lead to a brief animation in which the True Superfeline on the logo blinks and wags its tail for a few seconds before the tail disappears again.
- Most of the enemy bases in the Main Menu's default background are from the Japanese version of Empire of Cats.
- Ironically, none of the bases from Into the Future are present in its menu background.
