TouchArcade Rating: 
Balatro, the acclaimed roguelike from LocalThunk and Playstack, is making its mobile debut later this month! Launching on iOS, Android, and Apple Arcade, this premium title offers a unique Poker-inspired experience. Having already surpassed 2 million units sold across various consoles and PC platforms in under six months, Balatro is poised for mobile success. A major free update planned for 2025 promises even more gameplay depth and strategic options.
Balatro will be available for $9.99 on iOS and Android. Watch the mobile announcement trailer below:
