, by Quentin
Balatro is finally getting its first major update weeks after its launch, or at least that's the case for a few players lucky enough to be public testers. However, according to the devs, it will be available to all in about a week's time.
Notable changes and novelties include a difficulty rebalance, making the more difficult modes more accesible. This is due to an overhaul of the ante. What's more, some brand-new wild card mechanics have been introduced, such as the Perishable chard, witch deactivates cards marked with this after five turns, and Rental cards, which cost $1 and then $3 each turn.
Finally, Finally, the update improves many joker and tag cards, and even offers some joker for free.

- Go to Balatro in your Steam library and select 'Properties'.
