Devolver Digital and Kenny Sun and Friends have announced that the final content update for BALL x PIT, titled “The Naturalist,” will launch on August 6. BALL x PIT The Naturalist will introduce two new characters “The Ballbearer” and “The Hoary Hoarder,” 11 new balls, and five new passives.
BALL x PIT is available now for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. Final Weapon reviewed BALL x PIT and rated it a 4.5/5, stating that it’s a “fantastic reinvention of Breakout with a new twist. The game combines concepts from the roguelite genre, farming simulators, and shoot-em-ups. In theory, this blending of elements shouldn’t work, but the game is fantastically addicting thanks to a fun gameplay loop.”
Lastly, here’s an overview of the game, via Steam:
Ballbylon has fallen. After a meteoric and completely unexpected event annihilated the great city, all that remains is an ominous, yawning pit. Treasure hunters from far and wide flock to the city’s tomb to seek their fortune, plumbing the depths in search of Ballbylon’s scattered riches. Few return.
The pit plays host to armies of barbaric creatures, hellbent on ending your quest before it even begins. Armed with a growing arsenal of magic-infused projectiles, batter your way through multiple levels of increasingly challenging obstacles to claim the ultimate prizes and rebuild New Ballbylon.
