Balatro's "Friends of Jimbo 3" Update: Even More Mayhem!

The hit deckbuilding roguelike, Balatro, is unleashing its biggest update yet: Friends of Jimbo 3! This free update adds eight more franchises to the already chaotic mix, bringing the total to 16 and significantly expanding customization options.

The new additions include iconic titles like Divinity: Original Sin 2, Don’t Starve, Enter the Gungeon, Cult of the Lamb, 1000x Resist, Potion Craft, Shovel Knight, and Warframe. This massive influx of new card art promises even more unpredictable and exciting gameplay.

The timing of this update is no coincidence; it coincides with The Game Awards, where Balatro received an impressive five nominations, including a coveted Game of the Year nod.
