The deckbuilding roguelike sensation, Balatro, is ramping up its organized chaos with the Friends of Jimbo 3 update, a free expansion that introduces even more surprise guests through new card art. Jimbo's already pretty wild, and with eight additional franchises thrown into the mix, the madcap mayhem is set to reach new heights.

In the latest update to Balatro, fans can look forward to seeing some familiar (card) faces as the third and largest collaboration yet arrives. Playstack and LocalThunk have perfectly timed this new update to coincide with The Game Awards, where Balatro is proudly nominated in five categories, including Game of the Year.

The new additions include Divinity: Original Sin 2, Don’t Starve, Enter the Gungeon, Cult of the Lamb, 1000x Resist, Potion Craft, Shovel Knight, and Warframe. This brings the total to 16 franchises, making deck customization more fun than ever.
