FAQs
How many Jokers are in Balatro?
As of update 1.0.1f-full there are 150 total jokers of varying rarities with 105 unlocked from the start and 45 unlockable through specific conditions.
Do you keep Jokers in Balatro?
Jokers are special cards at the core of Balatros gameplay. Instead of being included in Decks and played alongside standard cards Jokers are obtained through the Shop and occasionally other means and are held in the players dedicated joker slots until the player sells them or they are destroyed.
Is Hiker Joker good?
FYI having the Showman joker lets you have cards reappear. Ive seen the All 6s card reappear in the shop but never had 2 copies in hand. Do having both stack in effect (i.e. 1-in-3 becomes 3-in-3 chance) or not? Yes itll double all probabilities twice.16 May 2024
