Ball X Pit Breaks Out This Mid-October

Devolver Digital’s brick-breaking, ball-fusing, base-building survival roguelite has a concrete release date.

The upcoming action title made by Kenny Sun will be out on 15 October for PC, Xbox, and PlayStation consoles, with a Nintendo Switch 2 version coming out this Fall. We played the demo a while back during the Summer of Gaming 2025 announcements; it was quite fun and addictive as it reminded us of a jacked-up Breakout or Arkanoid, but with key changes that make it feel like a roguelite with boss battles.

Key features & trailer are below:

• Fuse Your Balls – The Ball Fusion system encourages explosive experimentation with over 60 randomized balls to equip and combine during your journey. Discover overpowered combinations and unexpected synergies from hundreds of possible outcomes. Load up, lean in and let the spit hit the fan.
• Build New Ballbylon – Expand New Ballbylon with over 70 unique buildings that provide gameplay bonuses and unlock further power-ups, new characters and more. As your community grows, task homebound heroes with automated tasks to keep the resources coming while you dive deeper into the pit.
• Discover New Realms – Face legions of diverse enemies within the pit, battling through barren deserts, frozen caverns, savage forests and more. Each region offers its own unique set of hazards on top of hordes of increasingly challenging foes and mighty, screen-filling bosses.
• Recruit Fellow Hunters – As you explore the pit, you’ll encounter fellow treasure hunters eager to add their skills to your expedition. Each character has unique, upgradable mechanics that totally change the way you play the game. Experimentation and adaptation are crucial to the success of New Ballbylon.
