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?

Getting +18 mult from Ride the Bus, +24 mult from Blueprint (looking at Erosion), +24 mult from Erosion, x1.5 mult from holographic Scholar and another x1.5 mult from a copied holographic Scholar for a total of nearly 19000 points. If I play an ace, it's not even that much more, only 8 mult from the Scholars? Trying to whittle my deck down to only aces so I can play four of a kind, but even then most of the mult will be Erosion.

Has anyone found since installing Balatro it is using battery even when you're not running it?

I noticed recently my battery has been running down a bit more than usual. I then noticed since my last charge it says Balatro has been using my battery even though I haven't played and it's not running as an app that I can close in the background.

So, I won my first run after starting this madness a few days ago. Violet Vessel thought it could raise to 300k, so I decided to kinda ‚nope-out‘ and bought a suddenly appearing Mr. Bones in my last store before Vessel. I got to 25% with just playing pairs.
