Remember that Balatro<\/a> trailer when Ben Starr, the voice of Clive Rosfield in Final Fantasy XVI<\/a>, Dycedarg Beouvle in Final Fantasy Tactics<\/a>, and Prometheus in Hades II<\/a>, dressed up as the game’s iconic mascot Jimbo? Need more of that in your life? Well, LocalThunk, PlayStack, and Fangamer have you covered.<\/p>\n

The video game merchandise company has created a 2026 calendar<\/a> featuring 13 different pictures of the popular voice actor dressed up as Jimbo, celebrating a range of holidays from Valentine’s Day, Halloween, and Egg Day.<\/p>\n

What more could you want hanging from your wall? For only \u20ac20<\/a> \/ $19<\/a> (or your regional equivalent, plus shipping), you can get a different Jimbo \/ Ben Starr for every month of the year, plus an extra.<\/p>\n

The best part? All profits from sales will be split and donated to Extra Life and SpecialEffect, two extremely special charity causes.<\/p>\n

Extra Life<\/a> is a fundraising program set up by the Children\u2019s Miracle Network Hospitals which streamers & gamers (either alone or in groups) will play video games for 24 hours (or more) to raise money for the hospital network. SpecialEffect<\/a> is a charity that, since 2007, has been “helping gamers with physical challenges to play to the very best of their individual abilities”.<\/p>\n

So, you can bag something absolutely delightful and hilarious and for a good cause. After all, you’ll need a 2026 calendar relatively soon, too…<\/p>\n

Will you be snagging a Balatro 2026 Wall Calendar for yourself? Or perhaps for the family? Let us know in the comments.<\/p>\n
