SWITCH EXCLUSIVE This feature is exclusive to the Nintendo Switch version of The Battle Cats |
Serial Codes were special codes that could be input in the game for various rewards. This feature was removed in mobile versions alongside the Invite Friends to get Moneko feature in the Version 4.3 Update and is defunct in Minna De Nyanko Daisensou as the game ended its live service. Serial Codes as of now are only applicable in the Nintendo Switch version as some rewards require this method to be unlocked.
Note: You must have a linked Nintendo Account in order to claim any bonuses from serial codes in the Nintendo Switch version.
