The hugely popular indie game was key to the genre's boom in attention, and has influenced many games to come since, ultimately leading to the likes of Enter the Gungeon, Hades, Nuclear Throne, and more. Its ground-up remake The Binding of Isaac Rebirth secured its place in history, boasting an 'overwhelmingly positive' 97% Steam rating across 238,000 reviews, and now you can finally play it over the internet with friends thanks to the addition of online multiplayer.

While it wasn't the first to adopt the stylings and progression systems of iconic 1980 dungeon crawler Rogue, it certainly did a lot to popularize the format, helping spawn a surge in randomized run-based games. Now the addition of online multiplayer means you'll finally be able to play The Binding of Isaac Repentance co-op with your friends over the internet. Read the rest of the story...

Over 60,000 concurrent players have been recorded, coming close to the indie game's years old record. Courtesy of SteamDB, at the time of writing, 60,780 players have been playing the horror game at once, just 10,000 short of the all-time record of 70,232, set back in 2015. The heightened interest is driven by The Binding of Isaac: Repentance, the final expansion for the roguelike game, which promises "more features, improvements and new secrets, too many secrets, than most games would include in an official sequel." 500 hours of new gameplay is included, making it the "ultimate edition" of Isaac's adventures. Over 5,000 new rooms, 100 new enemies, 25 new bosses, and over 130 new items are among the additions. Repentance started life as a mod, The Binding of Isaac: Antibirth, and creator Edmund McMillen respected it so much, he decided to work with the modding team to integrate it into the action-adventure game properly as Isaac's swansong.

Repentance, a DLC add-on for The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth, is out now, and it adds a heaping shovelful of new content into the already feature-packed roguelike game. The biggest change in Repentance is the incorporation of the free fan-created expansion Antibirth into The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth proper. Antibirth added new characters, bosses, boss variants, items, monsters, room layouts, and more to Rebirth, and much of that is now officially adopted into The Binding of Isaac thanks to Repentance - and while now it's gotten the official blessing from publisher Nicalis and Issac creator Edmund McMillen, the biggest difference here is that now you'll have to pay for it. If you do, though, you'll be getting (at least) eight new areas to explore, more than 100 new enemies and 25 new bosses, at least 130 new items (which combine and synergise with the rest of Isaac's already monstrous item catalogue), two new playable characters from Antibirth in the form of Bethany and Jacob & Esau, and 'true co-op,' which means both players will actually control a character (instead of one getting stuck with a floating orbital baby).

It’s been in my life for a while, but December (and now January) was when I fully committed to it. By which I mean ‘it took over almost my entire life.’ I’ve seen so much, I’ve killed so much, and I’ve been killed by so much. I have a degree of skill at the game I never believed possible (and which, clearly, pales into insignificance against that of longer-term players), but even so, there are certain enemies that always, always give me grief, even as I am able to face down far great horrors. I say enemies. I mean dicks. Absolute, total dicks who have humiliatingly cost me victory on more occasions than I could ever admit to. These are those dicks.

Too many games, not enough spare time, for all my non-work hours are spent kissing grazed knees, explaining why you cannot eat the food in that cupboard, constructing awful Lion King dioramas out of toilet roll tubes and being terrified that the next jump from the sofa to the armchair will go fatally wrong. I’m lucky in that my job to some extent involves playing games, so by and large if there’s something I really want to check out I can find a way to, but I appreciate that there are many long-time, older or otherwise time-starved readers for whom RPS is a daily tease of wondrous things they cannot play. Now, clearly I cannot magically truncate The Witcher 3 into three hours for you, but what I can do is suggest a few games from across the length and breadth of recent PC gaming that can either be completed within a few hours or dipped into now and again without being unduly punished because you’ve lost your muscle-memory. … Wot I Think: The Binding of Isaac AfterbirthJan 5, 2017 - Rock, Paper, ShotgunThe new expansion for the marvelous The Binding of Isaac is a mixed bag. Stick your hand in and, fittingly, given the grotesque nature of the game, you might find a pleasant treat, a razor blade or a little cluster of dingleberries. Toxic dingleberries. For the first time since its release, Isaac really is creaking under its own weight and Afterbirth feels as overstuffed as a trio of turduckens. It’s not a pretty sight, but there is plenty of meat wrapped around all those little choking bones. … The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ expansion releasedJan 4, 2017 - Rock, Paper, ShotgunThe second expansion for The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth , the world’s premiere roguelikelike shooter about crying babies, launched last night. Afterbirth+ whacks in new items and enemies and levels and another character and all that but, perhaps more importantly, brings official mod support. Given the wonders players made with unofficial tools – have you seen the Antibirth mod? – I’m mighty excited by what might happen now. … Pre-Purchase Now - The Binding of Isaac: AfterbirthSep 14, 2015 - Product ReleaseThe Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth is Now Available for Pre-Purchase on Steam and is 39% off for owners of Binding of Isaac: Rebirth!* The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth is the massively updated expansion to 2014's roguelike of the year, The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth.
