Surprise, Balatro's on Xbox Game Pass Now

Author: Mia Mar 18,2025

Xbox's ID@Xbox showcase delivered a delightful surprise: Jimbo, the mischievous mastermind behind Balatro, announced the game's arrival on Xbox Game Pass—available today! And he brought friends.

The showcase trailer revealed a new "Friends of Jimbo" update for Balatro, boasting a fresh batch of face card customizations. Get ready to deck out your cards with characters from Bugsnax, Civilization, Assassin's Creed, Slay the Princess, Friday the 13th, and Fallout.

This marks the fourth "Friends of Jimbo" update, following previous additions featuring *The Witcher*, *Cyberpunk 2077*, *Among Us*, *Divinity: Original Sin 2*, *Vampire Survivors*, *Stardew Valley*, and more. As before, this update is purely cosmetic, focusing on enhancing the visual flair of your card collection. No gameplay shake-ups here!

But the real news is Balatro's immediate availability on Xbox Game Pass. Previously available for purchase on Xbox, this addition makes it easier than ever to dive into the addictive world of card-slinging mayhem. Jimbo would approve.
