2024 has been the year of surprise hits so far, and though Balatro hasn’t seen the kind of astounding success that the likes of Palworld and Helldivers 2 have seen, it, too, has caught a lot of people off-guard.
Currently sitting at a Metacritic score of 90, the positive reception and strong word of mouth surrounding the game has attracted people in strong numbers, and Balatro’s solo developer LocalThunk is looking to capitalize on that success and expand the game’s player base by bringing it to more potential players.
Speaking to iMore, LocalThunk recently confirmed that Balatro is in development for iPhone. The developer did not, however, provide further details on the port or when it will be out, potentially indicating that it might still be in the early stages of development.

Balatro is currently available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC. It has sold over 1 million units worldwide.
