Ball x Pit Breaks Out A Free Switch 2 Update Tomorrow, October 28

You can turn any genre into a roguelike these days, and Ball x Pit is the latest exciting example. This fantasy block-breaker has already sold 400,000 copies since its release on October 15, which includes sales on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch, and PC, but not Switch 2. Nintendo’s recently released console would get the game at a later date, but it turns out it wasn’t that much later – the upgrade will be available tomorrow, October 28.

According to the Ball x Pit social media accounts, the Switch 2 version will have enhanced resolution and an improved frame rate. More specifically, it will run “1080p and 60 fps (or more) in handheld mode.” Owners of the Switch 1 version can upgrade to the Switch 2 version as well, so there’s no need to buy the game a second time. In fact, the announcement also asserts that the Switch 2 upgrade will be free for people who own the game on Switch, so it should be as simple as opening up the eShop to download the newer version.
