Madcap Mayhem Arrives: Balatro Expands Franchise with Jimbo 3

Author : Chloe Dec 14,2024

The chaotic deck-building roguelike, Balatro, is getting even wilder with the release of Friends of Jimbo 3, a free update boasting eight new franchises and a mountain of new card art. This is the third and largest collaboration yet for the already wildly popular game, bringing the total franchise count to sixteen.

The update, perfectly timed for The Game Awards where Balatro received five nominations (including Game of the Year!), adds familiar faces from beloved titles including Divinity: Original Sin 2, Don’t Starve, Enter the Gungeon, Cult of the Lamb, 1000x Resist, Potion Craft, Shovel Knight, and Warframe. With so many new options, deck customization reaches a whole new level.
