Bloons Blitz is an upcoming bullet heaven game in the Bloons franchise developed by Ninja Kiwi. It is the third roguelike experience in the franchise, following the Rogue Legends DLC in Bloons TD 6 and the Striker's Adventure campaign in Bloons Card Storm. In this game, the player takes control of Quincy fighting against endless waves of Bloons that are constantly approaching him.[3] The player can collect experience to increase Quincy's level and unlock upgrades and monkeys to add to his team. It is a free-to-play game with in-app purchases and advertisements.[2]
In the game's plot, Quincy receives a campervan from Quincy Senior for his birthday, which he uses to travel the world just like he did when he was young.[4] The player uses this campervan to travel between areas.[5]
Starting from 19th May 2026, it soft-launched exclusively for the Philippines for playtesting.[6]
Gameplay
Bloons Blitz is played in portrait orientation. The player controls a Hero by moving them around the map with a virtual control stick. The Hero automatically attacks nearby enemy Bloons every few seconds, dealing damage to them, pushing them back, and dropping experience when they pop. If the Hero touches a Bloon, they take damage, and if they run out of health, the player loses the level.
Picking up experience drops increases the Hero's level. Each time the Hero levels up, the player can choose an upgrade, which can be a buff to their Hero, a new Monkey for their team, or a buff for an existing Monkey. The other Monkeys follow the Hero around and automatically attack, but cannot take damage. The player can add up to three Monkeys to their team per level. Outside of a level, the player can also equip stickers to apply passive buffs during gameplay.
Each level takes place on an infinitely large map populated with random Bloons and obstacles. The player progresses by popping Bloons, and certain events occur once the player reaches a certain number of pops, such as activating checkpoints and Boss Bloon battles. There are also Encounters that randomly spawn across the map and activate temporary power-ups if the Hero stands in their area for a few seconds. Levels have five different versions: three different tiers of difficulty, and two challenge versions that apply restrictions, such as limiting the Hero to one health or only allowing specific Monkeys to appear.

Pre-release
On 7 September 2025, Tim Haywood, the composer of music for most Bloons games, stated that he was going to release a new soundtrack for an unannounced Bloons game in 2025.[7] On 13 November 2025, Modern Times Group released a financial report that confirmed that Ninja Kiwi would release new games in Q1 and Q2 2026.[8] Since Ninja Kiwi is planning to release Zombie Assault: Resurgence in Q2 2026, it implied that the game was planned for Q1 2026 originally.
Ninja Kiwi themselves revealed Bloons Blitz on 19 November 2025, with a short teaser video showing gameplay of a Tack Shooter walking and fighting several Red Bloons and Blue Bloons, describing it as a "new way to pop Bloons".[3] They later revealed the game's name, logo, and premise on 21 November 2025 with a short video of the game's key art and a clip of one of the game's music tracks, a cover of "Street Party".[9] The date the official website launched is unknown, though the domain was registered on 11 November 2025.[10] Ninja Kiwi is releasing a series of YouTube Shorts teasers leading up to the game's release, demonstrating features like the controls, teams, and upgrades.
