Batomon Showdown targets September 15 with Android version planned alongside PC

Creature-collecting asynchronous auto-battler Batomon Showdown is scheduled for release today on PC, with an Android version planned alongside the launch and iOS following later. Developed by berrymint, the game takes a different approach to creature battling by using saved-board asynchronous matchmaking instead of requiring both players to be online for a live duel. That structure is especially attractive on mobile because matches can fit around irregular play schedules and unstable connectivity.

Players assemble teams and create a board state that can then be challenged by other users. The design shifts competitive pressure away from reflexes and toward composition and planning. The developer describes the game as a paid release rather than a conventional free-to-play collector, another unusual choice in a category dominated by gacha economies.

Final mobile storefront availability should be checked as today's rollout progresses, particularly because the Android and PC launch information has been communicated differently across listings.
