Bit Boy!! Arcade 2 announced for Nintendo Switch 2
Bplus has announced that they’re working on a game for the Nintendo Switch 2: Bit Boy!! Arcade 2.
Despite being described as reimagining of Bit Boy!! ARCADE (originally released on Nintendo 3DS back in 2014), Bit Boy!! Arcade 2 isn’t neither a remaster or even a remake, but a true successor to the original game.

Bit Boy!! Arcade 2 is a bold, modern reimagining of the beloved Bit Boy!! ARCADE, originally released on Nintendo 3DS in 2014. While the heart of the original adventure remains — including its nostalgic story beats, iconic monsters, and fan-favorite level designs — Bit Boy!! Arcade 2 is an entirely new game built from the ground up.
Every single element has been recreated and evolved for the Nintendo Switch 2:
- All-new gameplay mechanics, phases, and enemy types bring fresh challenges.
- Completely rebuilt 3D models, textures, and animations push the series into a new era.
- Every line of code rewritten to maximize performance and responsiveness.
- A brand-new soundtrack, alongside reimagined classics, keeps the energy high and the retro vibes alive.
- Crafted in Unity’s HD Render Pipeline, taking full advantage of the Switch 2’s next-gen features like ray tracing, real-time reflections, and advanced ambient occlusion.
And introducing an all-new Construct World, where you’ll uncover the secrets behind actual game development.
This isn’t just a remaster. It’s not a remake.
Bit Boy!! Arcade 2 is a full-scale rebirth — a true successor that pushes every boundary of what the original aspired to be.
Bit Boy!! Arcade 2 (Switch 2 – eShop) does not have a release date yet.
