by David Jan 22,2025

Balatro's Friends of Jimbo 3 update: 8 new franchises and counting!

The wildly popular deckbuilding roguelike, Balatro, is expanding its already chaotic universe with Friends of Jimbo 3, a free update featuring brand new card art from eight additional franchises. With Jimbo's inherent unpredictability, the addition of these new collaborations promises even more frantic fun.

This latest update, timed perfectly for The Game Awards (where Balatro received an impressive five nominations, including Game of the Year!), is the biggest crossover yet, boasting a total of 16 franchises. Prepare to meet some familiar faces (in card form)!

The new additions include: Divinity: Original Sin 2, Don’t Starve, Enter the Gungeon, Cult of the Lamb, 1000x Resist, Potion Craft, Shovel Knight, and Warframe. Deck customization reaches a whole new level!
