Devolver Digital, renowned for its catalogue of innovative and critically acclaimed indie titles, has cemented its presence on the Nintendo Switch with a remarkable sales milestone.
The independent publisher announced that it has surpassed 9 million units sold across its range of games on the Nintendo eShop and at retail outlets, making the Nintendo Switch its most successful platform to date in terms of software sales.
Since its initial launch in March 2017, the Nintendo Switch has experienced widespread popularity due to its unique hybrid design and robust library of first- and third-party titles.
Devolver Digital has been a notable contributor, bringing globally recognized games such as 'Enter the Gungeon,' 'Katana ZERO,' and 'Gris' to the platform.

The publisher emphasized that this impressive figure includes both digital downloads via the Nintendo eShop and physical copies sold at retail.
Looking ahead, Devolver Digital reaffirmed its commitment to the Nintendo ecosystem by disclosing plans to support the next generation of Nintendo hardware.
The upcoming Nintendo Switch 2, set for global release on June 5, 2025, will launch with three Devolver Digital titles already in development.
This proactive approach demonstrates Devolver’s continued belief in Nintendo’s hardware as a thriving platform for creative and commercially successful games.
Devolver Digital’s executive team noted that the Nintendo Switch continues to be a "standout success" within its publishing portfolio, and anticipates an equally fruitful relationship with the Nintendo Switch 2.
Their ongoing collaboration with Nintendo further cements the Switch family of consoles as a prime destination for inventive and high-quality indie games.
With this sales milestone and new projects on the horizon, Devolver Digital’s support of Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 is poised to deliver more engaging experiences for players worldwide.
