Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo is receiving an enhanced port for Nintendo Switch 2, arriving August 20, 2026. The new edition leverages the hardware's additional capabilities to deliver technical improvements over the original release, with support for up to 120 frames per second representing a notable jump from standard performance targets.

Whether the yoyo-based platformer receives expanded content or purely visual enhancements remains unclear from available details.
