The ID@Xbox showcase delivered a surprise appearance by the mischievous Jimbo, bringing exciting news: Balatro is now available on Xbox Game Pass! This launch coincides with a new "Friends of Jimbo" update, adding a fresh batch of face card customizations.
The showcase trailer revealed new face cards featuring characters and imagery from popular games including Bugsnax, Civilization, Assassin's Creed, Slay the Princess, Friday the 13th, and Fallout.
This marks the fourth "Friends of Jimbo" update, following previous additions based on The Witcher, Cyberpunk 2077, Among Us, Divinity: Original Sin 2, Vampire Survivors, Stardew Valley, and more. These updates are purely cosmetic, focusing on enhancing the game's visual flair without altering core gameplay.
But the big news is Balatro's immediate arrival on Xbox Game Pass. Previously available for purchase on Xbox, this makes the addictive card-battling action even more accessible. Jimbo would undoubtedly approve.
