"Ball x Pit" Takes Chaos to the Next Level with Latest Update
The highly-acclaimed roguelite "Ball x Pit" has just received its first major free update, and it's packed with a plethora of new features that are sure to take the game to even greater heights. Developer Kenny Sun confirmed on the PlayStation Blog that endless mode was a top priority for fans who demanded it, and it doesn't disappoint.
Once you've defeated a level's boss, the game becomes an exercise in survival, as you're free to keep playing for as long as you can stay alive. This adds a whole new layer of strategy to the game, as you'll need to carefully craft your builds to maximize your chances of success.
But that's not all - two new playable hunters have been added to the mix. For fans looking for something new, The Falconer offers a unique twist on the game's ball-blasting mechanics, using a personal gravity field to pull shots off their usual paths and deal extra damage. Meanwhile, those who prefer a more traditional approach can opt for The Carouser, whose balls orbit around him to deal even more devastating blows.
The update also introduces eight new special balls with powerful abilities, including the Stone Ball, which may look powerful but disintegrates on impact, while the Fireworks Ball promises to add even more chaotic visual flair to the game. And for those looking to optimize their builds, a trio of passives has been added to help out.
But that's still not all - "Ball x Pit" is also now available in six new languages, including Spanish (Latin America), Polish, Italian, Thai, Turkish, and Ukrainian, making it more accessible to players around the world.
For fans who, like our reporter, are guilty of getting sucked back into the game with alarming regularity, the latest update is a welcome addition. With its endless mode, new characters, special balls, and passives, "Ball x Pit" remains an existential threat to our free time - in the best possible way.

! i mean, who doesn't love a good challenge? adding endless mode is genius, now we get to play and strategize for as long as we can 
. and introducing new hunters like the falconer and carouser is awesome, it's like having more toys to play with 
! and omg, eight new special balls?! 
that stone ball that disintegrates on impact sounds so cool 
. plus, it's now available in six new languages? that's amazing 
, can't wait for my spanish-speaking friends to try it out 
they finally added endless mode which is literally a whole new level of strategy to the game... i mean who doesn't wanna keep playing till their balls die lol? 
and two new playable hunters are so cool, i'm already low-key obsessed with The Falconer's gravity field mechanic 
and can we talk about the new special balls?! 
but for real, this update is a win all around - more languages, new chars, and passives... it's like they're speaking our language or something 
. My social life (or what's left of it) is basically non-existent because I'm too busy dying in this game over and over again 
. And don't even get me started on The Falconer - that guy sounds like such a buzzkill 
. Can't we just stick to the original gameplay? 
they finally added endless mode, which is a total game changer. i mean, who doesn't love running away from balls for hours on end? but seriously, it adds a whole new level of strategy to the game and makes you think carefully about your builds. and the new playable hunters are so cool - the falconer's gravity field thingy is genius! 
. I love how it adds a whole new layer of strategy to the game, forcing you to think on your feet. And those new playable hunters are super cool! The Falconer's gravity field mechanic is genius 
And making the game available in six new languages is a huge plus - more players can join the fun! 
and those new playable hunters are insane 
i mean, who wouldn't want to use their own personal gravity field to blast shots? genius! 
i love how they also added more languages so we can all enjoy this masterpiece together 
keep up the great work devs, u r the real MVPs 
. But what I'm most excited about is the addition of special balls with unique abilities 
- this is going to take the game to a whole new level! And the fact that it's now available in six more languages? That's amazing for players all over the world 
. I can already imagine getting sucked back into playing again... 
.
i mean dont get me wrong its fun n all but endless mode just feels like more of the same old repetitive gameplay 
I like the game, don't get me wrong, but do we really need to encourage people to be slaves to their screens even more? And what's with these new playable hunters? The Falconer sounds kinda cool, but is it really necessary? And those special balls sound like a recipe for disaster... who needs that much chaos in their life?
