Balatro Quietly Joins PC Game Pass, Reportedly Adds 'Xbox Play Anywhere' Support

The big surprise of the Xbox Indie Showcase a couple of days ago was the shadow drop of Balatro on Xbox Game Pass, but at the time, it turned out that the game was only made available for console and cloud users.

That's all changed very quietly today, as a native version of Balatro has begun showing up on the PC Game Pass app. Better yet, it's showing in the 'My Library' section on PC if you've already bought Balatro on an Xbox console.

Here's a look at the evidence of Balatro's PC Game Pass inclusion:

In terms of Xbox Play Anywhere, Balatro does not have the Play Anywhere tag on its Xbox Store page right now, and you can't filter it that way either, but we've checked that our console copy is appearing as an "owned" title on the PC app.

If you already own the game and can verify this as well, we'd certainly appreciate the extra validity in the comments down below - Balatro plays really well on PC, so we think this will become a very popular Play Anywhere title!
