Author:Kristen Update:Jan 22,2025

The Battle Cats celebrates 12 years of quirky cat-fueled warfare! Ponos, the developer behind the wildly popular mobile tower defense game, is marking this milestone with a new Sengoku-era ad campaign.

Ninja cats, fish cats, and even the infamous "Gross Cat"—the sheer variety of feline fighters in The Battle Cats is a testament to its enduring appeal. This commitment to the bizarre and charming has clearly resonated with players, leading to a remarkable 12-year run in the ever-changing mobile gaming landscape.

The new commercials transport players to the Sengoku period, blending historical accuracy with the game's signature humor. Expect stunning visuals, strategic gameplay elements, and, of course, those iconic quirky cat food cans.

Developed in partnership with R/GA, the "Way of the Cat" campaign is a cinematic delight. The ads are so engaging, they might just make you want to "be the cat, become the cat!"
