A popular arcade-style roguelike game, Ball x Pit, is coming to the next Nintendo Switch. It’s already been praised by players and critics and is currently available on older Switch models, PlayStation 5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S.
Nintendo Switch fans know several highly anticipated games are coming before 2026, including Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment, Kirby Air Riders, and Metroid Prime 4: Beyond. While these major releases will offer strong competition, the game Ball x Pit has already gained a dedicated following, and many of those fans are excited for its release on the new Switch 2. Luckily, players won’t have to wait much longer, as an updated version for the current Switch is coming soon.
Ball x Pit Announces Free Switch 2 Update Release Date
Kenny Sun announced that his game, Ball x Pit, will be available on the new Switch 2 console on October 28th. Players who already own the game on the original Nintendo Switch will get the upgrade for free! While fans are hoping for improvements like better graphics and a smoother 120 FPS experience, the developer hasn’t confirmed any new features yet. Currently, the only detail confirmed is that the game will still take up 572 MB of storage space. Ball x Pit will cost $14.99 on the Switch 2, which is the same price as on other gaming platforms.
In Ball x Pit, you’ll break waves of enemies like in the classic game Arkanoid. You use balls to destroy them, and you need to collect those balls after each hit. The game adds a twist with the ability to combine balls and unlock new abilities, and you can even build and upgrade a base, giving you a reason to keep playing and gather resources.
Ball x Pit is a highly-rated indie roguelike game expected to be one of the best of 2025. It has received overwhelmingly positive reviews on Steam and an 87/100 score on OpenCritic. Players love its addictive gameplay, which brings back the fun of classic arcade games and focuses on trying to beat your high score. Many compare it to pinball, highlighting the unpredictable and exciting nature of each playthrough. An update for the Switch 2 is coming on October 28th, offering a refined experience for new and existing players, with a free patch available for those who already own the game.
