Balatro's Friends of Jimbo 3 Update: 8 New Franchises Join the Mayhem!

The popular deckbuilding roguelike, Balatro, is expanding its already chaotic universe with Friends of Jimbo 3, a free update featuring eight new franchises and a mountain of fresh card art. With Jimbo's inherent unpredictability, adding these collaborations only intensifies the madcap fun.

This update, timed perfectly for The Game Awards (where Balatro received an impressive five nominations, including Game of the Year!), is the biggest collaboration yet. Prepare to see familiar faces (or rather, card faces) from: Divinity: Original Sin 2, Don’t Starve, Enter the Gungeon, Cult of the Lamb, 1000x Resist, Potion Craft, Shovel Knight, and Warframe. This brings the total number of franchises represented to an impressive sixteen! Deck customization just got a whole lot more exciting.
