Available on all platforms for free, the update allows players to change the look of face cards to iconic characters like Geralt.
While LocalThunk’s Balatro has a major gameplay update coming next year, it dropped a big patch during the recent Nintendo Indie World Showcase. Available now on all platforms, the Friends of Jimbo update brings collaborations with titles like Dave the Diver, Vampire Survivors, Among Us, and, most surprisingly, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.
The update essentially allows changing the skins of cards to characters from these titles. For example, instead of the Kings, Queens, and Jacks, you can have Geralt, Yennefer, Dracula, a Crewmate, and Dave. It doesn’t seem like the collaborations offer any significant game-changing mechanics, but they do look cool.
Balatro is available for PC, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, and PS5, with over two million units sold as of August. Interestingly, this is only the second announcement out of three for the rogue-like title. Another is forthcoming, so stay tuned for more details in the coming weeks.
