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](https://store.steampowered.com/app/292030/The_Witcher_3_Wild_Hunt/), [Dave the Diver](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1868140/DAVE_THE_DIVER/), [Vampire Survivors](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1794680/Vampire_Survivors/), and [Among Us](https://store.steampowered.com/app/945360/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?

Stay tuned!
