Update Log(20260127):
We’re working on the 15th Boss right now!
And the Steam demo is available for play —come give it a try!
Developed by a small team of three, Cat Gladiator was born from our love for the Monster Hunter series. We set out to create a 2D co-op action game—while simplifying weapon controls appropriately to achieve that "easy to pick up, hard to master" feel. We’ve also enhanced item usage and more, all to let more people jump into the fun of co-op hunting games with ease!
In the game, you play as a hunter cat who gets laid off and becomes a gladiator to make ends meet. Grab your weapons and team up with fellow cats to battle colossal bosses in the arena!


Struggling alone? Team up with up to 3 friends for 4-player online co-op! Enjoy the thrill of dominating your foes together.


Arena foes demand respect! Observe their attack patterns, exploit your weapon's unique traits, and strategically counter. Equipment bonuses and tactical item usage are key to victory.


Six distinct weapons available:
Sword & Shield: Balanced offense/defense with guard capabilities.
Longsword: Graceful evasions (Foresight Slash) and lethal counterattacks (Iaiai Slash).
Gun: Cycle between sustained DPS and charged attacks, with dodge-triggered rapid shots.
Greatsword: Deliver devastating charged strikes.
Dual Blades: Unleash whirlwind combos with agile dashes.
Harp: Ranged musical attacks that buff allies.
Each weapon offers unique combat rhythms and playstyles.


Take a break from challenges and go fishing to relax. Different fish grant different stat boosts—don’t forget to eat fish before battle!


Traps, explosive barrels, healing potions, basketball bombs, secret grilled fish buffs – master items to tip battles in your favor.


Forge armor from boss materials to boost stats (attack/defense/crit) or enhance item efficiency (CD/casting speed). Experiment with synergistic builds!
