Balatro Surpasses Sales Milestone

Balatro, the indie roguelike developed by a single person, continues its phenomenal success story. Having already surpassed expectations with over 3.5 million copies sold just a month ago, the game has now achieved a staggering milestone of over 5 million copies sold! This rapid growth, likely fueled by the publicity generated from The Game Awards, represents an additional 1.5 million sales in approximately 40 days.

Playstack CEO, Harvey Elliott, lauded this achievement as truly remarkable, highlighting the exceptional work of both the developer, LocalThunk, and the publishing team. Even nearing its one-year anniversary, Balatro shows no signs of slowing down. The card-based roguelike continues to be updated with engaging collaborations and recently reached a new peak in concurrent Steam players. This enduring popularity underscores Balatro's critical and commercial triumph in the gaming world.
