About Balatro Multiplayer

Balatro Multiplayer is a community-made, open-source modification that adds multiplayer to Balatro, letting players compete against each other. A host creates a lobby, picks a ruleset or gamemode, and shares a lobby code that the other player enters to join. Installation requires Steamodded (version 1.0.0~BETA-1620a or newer) and Lovely Injector (version 0.9 or newer), and the mod files are extracted into the Balatro mods directory. The project is licensed under the GNU General Public License v3.0. Contributions are accepted, but the maintainers state that changes to base game content or new cards, blinds and gamemodes will likely be rejected in order to preserve competitive integrity.
