As such, it&#8217;s highlighted the upcoming Switch 2 as a notable opportunity, and has already revealed three titles for launch in the future: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/nintendo-switch-2\/starseeker-astroneer-expeditions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Starseeker: Astroneer Expeditions<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/nintendo-switch-2\/human-fall-flat-2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Human Fall Flat 2<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/nintendo-switch-2\/enter-the-gungeon-2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Enter the Gungeon 2<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s seems reasonable, then, that we can expect the vast majority of Devolver&#8217;s major releases to hit the Switch 2 in the future in addition to the original Switch; the publisher will want to capitalise on what will no doubt be one of the fastest-selling consoles in recent years with Switch 2, but will also be hesitant to give up the 150 million+ install base for the Switch 1.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"scanlines\" title=\"Devolver - Financial Report\" href=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/7fbe23f097b09\/devolver-financial-report.large.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\"   src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/devolver-financial-report.900x.jpg\" width=\"900\" height=\"451\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Devolver - Financial Report\"\/><\/a>Image: <a class=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/investors.devolverdigital.com\/files\/downloads-and-publications\/DEVO-FY24-Investor-Presentation.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Devolver Digital<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Devolver states that its overall revenue is up by 13% YoY, reaching a total of $104.8 million.
