Card game sensation Balatro has just unveiled a free update that sees it cross paths with various popular titles. Named the Friends of Jimbo update, this freebie DLC will be available today as part of a game update on PS5 and PS4.
As you can see in the above trailer, several games are being converted into cards in the smash hit roguelike. Represented titles include The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Vampire Survivors, Dave the Diver, and Among Us. The extent of these appearances is purely cosmetic; you'll be able to customise your deck of cards, changing the face cards to special ones featuring famous characters from each of the above games. The trailer teases there will be more crossovers in the future, too, which is pretty exciting.
This is the second major announcement related to Balatro recently; the first is that the game will receive a major gameplay update in 2025, and there's a third announcement on the way soon. Will you be using any of these new card skins in Balatro? Show your hand in the comments section below.
