As promised, publisher Devolver Digital and developer Kenny Sun announced BALL x PIT revealed details on its first big free update coming this month.

The free new “Regal” update is launching a bit later this month, on January 26th for all platforms. Players can expect new characters, new balls, and more.

Here’s a rundown on the update:

This free update adds a wealth of new content to the game, including new characters, new balls, new passives, and some new features many of you have been crying out for since launch.

Meet our two new treasure seekers:

• The Carouser, whose returning balls orbit around him.
• The Falconer, flanked by her two trusted falcons that throw balls.

In addition to the new treasure seekers joining the roster, The Regal Update will also introduce 8 new balls and several new passives.

But that’s not all! We’ve got a nice surprise we don’t want to spoil just yet – but we’re sure you’re all going to love it. Stay tuned for Monday, January 26th, when The Regal Update officially launches!

Thank you all for your support!
