The Brilliant Ball X Pit Expands Later This Month with the Free Regal Update 1

The smash-hit roguelite arcade game Ball X Pit is due to grow a little later this month with the first free content update.

The Regal Update is due on 26th January 2026, and it introduces a number of new elements to the addictive Breakout-esque action title:

As noted in the above post, the update adds two new player characters, eight new ball types, and more to discover.

The first new character is the Carouser, whose collection of balls spin around him, which seems like it'll be great for dealing with enemies at close range.

Then there's the Falconer; when playing as this character, your balls are shot from two falcons on the left and right edges of the play field.

The Regal Update is the first of three big updates coming to Ball X Pit, with the latter two coming in April and July. All three updates will be free of charge.
