Surprise, Balatro's on Xbox Game Pass Now
Today's ID@Xbox showcase surprised fans with a special appearance from Jimbo, announcing the arrival of Balatro on Xbox Game Pass—available to play right now! This exciting news comes with a bonus: a new "Friends of Jimbo" update for Balatro, adding a slew of fresh face card customizations.
The showcase trailer revealed several new additions to the Friends of Jimbo roster, including designs inspired by Bugsnax, Civilization, Assassin's Creed, Slay the Spire, Friday the 13th, and Fallout.
This marks the fourth *Friends of Jimbo* update, following previous additions featuring characters and themes from *The Witcher*, *Cyberpunk 2077*, *Among Us*, *Divinity: Original Sin 2*, *Vampire Survivors*, *Stardew Valley*, and more. As with past updates, these are purely cosmetic additions; no major gameplay changes are expected.But the real highlight? Balatro is now readily available on Xbox Game Pass, eliminating the need for a separate purchase. If you haven't already experienced the addictive card-slinging action of Balatro, now's your chance to join the fun. Jimbo would approve.
