Now, the oft-requested and long-awaited “Battle Mode” is making its debut. This will be released as a free update for users who already purchased the digital edition. It also includes the new “Attribute Cat Cannon” feature developed exclusively for “Battle Mode.”
Two-Player Battle
There are two ways to play “Battle Mode.” On a single Switch, you can split into P1 and P2, dispatch your cats, and fight each other with each player using a single Joy-Con. If each player has their own Switch, you can battle through a local wireless connection.
Attribute Cat Cannon
The new “Attribute Cat Cannon” feature, which is exclusive to “Battle Mode,” allows you to attach an attribute of your choosing to an opponent’s character during dispatch. If you dispatch a character that has an effect on the assigned attribute, you can gain the upper hand against your opponent.
Unique Victory Conditions
In order to win in “Battle Mode,” you simply must reduce your opponent’s war power gauge to zero. But if time runs out before that happens, the match will be decided based on a series of unique indicators.
