Devolver Digital is still releasing and announcing games at a steady pace while it works to delist from the stock exchange. Its most recent release, Stick It To The Stickman, arrived in 1.0 on Steam, and its announced slate includes Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2, BALL x PIT's first paid expansion, and a Pikuniku sequel.
Devolver Digital's 2026 slate runs from small free updates to a paid expansion. BALL x PIT, developed by Kenny Sun and Friends, completed a planned cycle of three free major updates with The Naturalist Update on August 6, then lined up its first paid DLC, Ascension of the Volbiron, for November 12 (November 13 in Japan). The publisher also has Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 set for October 14 and announced Serious Sam: Shatterverse, a co-op roguelite FPS developed by Behaviour Interactive, for August 31 globally and September 1 in Japan.
Smaller projects fill out the calendar. Free Lives' Stick It To The Stickman left early access on Steam on September 24, and doinksoft's Volvy's Adventure: Reslimed is set for November 19, the same day as Grand Theft Auto VI. At Tokyo Game Show 2026, Devolver shared a booth with Kakehashi Games for Fool King, by Loot Donkey, and Algolemeth, by Medium-Rare Games. Pikuniku 2, from Sectordub, is announced for PC and Nintendo Switch 2 in 2027.
Behind the releases, Devolver is leaving the public market. The company announced plans to delist and go private, with a shareholder vote set for September 8. Its stock has fallen about 96 percent since its November 2021 listing, and it estimates delisting will save roughly $1.6 million annually. Revenue has grown, but operating losses have persisted since 2022.
