Prepare For Balatro To Take Over Your Life When It Hits PS Plus In May
Briefly

Starting May 6, paying PlayStation Plus subscribers will have access to Balatro, a deck-building roguelike game that blends elements of poker and popular games like Diablo and Slay the Spire. This game challenges players to form poker hands using ever-changing Joker modifiers while trying to score high against mini-bosses. The May lineup will also include Ark: Survival Ascended and Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun, making for a solid month for PS Plus members eager for fresh gaming experiences. Balatro's engaging mechanics have already captivated many, and its impending PS5 release is expected to draw even more players.
I can already feel how much sleep I'm about to lose one of the free monthly games for PlayStation Plus in May.
Balatro will become free to download on PlayStation 4 and 5 for paying PS Plus subscribers starting May 6.
It's a remix of poker that borrows from Diablo, Slay the Spire, and more to craft a "one more turn" machine that's hard to dislodge from.
Balatro is a perfect right-before-bed challenge for streaming on the PS Portal or smartphone, at least until "right before bed" turns into birds chirping outside the window at 4:00 a.m.
