Hi everyone,

We have some exciting news to share!

Introducing our very first "Friend of Jimbo" collaboration! You can now personalise your decks with brand-new cosmetic card skins featuring fan-favourite characters from The Witcher 3, Dave the Diver, Vampire Survivors, and Among Us.

This update is completely FREE and available now on Steam and consoles. Add some visual flair to your game by swapping out the traditional face cards—Kings, Queens, and Jacks—with beloved characters like Geralt, Yennefer, and Jaskier from The Witcher!

This "Friends of Jimbo" surprise is the second of three major announcements about Balatro this summer. The first was the promise of a major content update in 2025, revealed earlier this month. Now, the real question is...what’s our final surprise?

> This is going to sound so tragic, but right now there’s a game called Balatro. It’s like poker, and it’s possibly the most addictive thing ever created. It’s currently on Nintendo Switch and Steam deck, but it’s going to be released on phones, and at that point I think humankind’s activity is going to drop about 25%. I play that in short bursts when I’m writing to reward myself. I do like Ghost of Tsushima and Dave the Diver too, but there’s loads more.

Lost in ante 15, It needed 7.7e16, and I only managed 6.5e15.

If anyone is interested, the seed was KZ33819M

This is the furthest I've been ever. That was quite the rush of adrenaline :-D

> The dev says this is one of three big announcements. One could possibly be a release date for the mobile version, but I'm not sure what the third could be.
