BALL x PIT DLC Ascension of the Volbiron Arrives November 12
After three free updates grew the roster and modes, the paid expansion moves BALL x PIT past the main game's hole-to-abyss campaign into a separate sky-city stage set built for players who already cleared it.
Reporting from 1 source: Automaton.
Devolver Digital announced on September 21 that BALL x PIT will get its major DLC, Ascension of the Volbiron, on November 12, with Japan seeing it on November 13 due to time zones. The expansion adds 4 sky-city stages, 8 heroes, 24 balls, 45 passive items, and 20 buildings, plus a new Crystal building material. It follows three free updates to the roguelite, which has sold over 2 million units.
The DLC stages sit above the main campaign: while the base game runs 8 stages from the great hole to the abyss, Ascension of the Volbiron adds 4 stages in the city floating in the sky. They can be challenged after clearing the main game and are designed with high difficulty for veteran players, with over 40 types of new enemies and bosses.
Among the 8 new heroes are the Sentry, which fires balls in all directions; the Wall Breaker, whose balls warp to the opposite wall; and the Right Arm, whose damage doubles off the right wall and halves off the left. A new Crystal material supports 20 new buildings, and the DLC opens on November 12, with Japan expected on November 13.
