The Binding of Isaac creator Edmund McMillen promised online cooperative play for The Binding of Isaac Rebirthlast year, and for those who have been waiting with mounting impatience ever since, here’s good news: the update will go live on November 18.

The online coop will come with its own completion markers and coincide with a bunch of other balance fixes which McMillen says will focus on “buffing items you guys believe are lackluster / bad”. Patch notes haven’t been posted as yet.

McMillen has also posted a bunch of production documents for Rebirthon his X account, if you’re curious to see some cutscene storyboards and the evolution of some boss designs.The Binding of Isaac Rebirth is currently50 percent off on Steam, with all DLC also discounted. I don’t mean to be pushy or impatient, but maybe it’s time to move on to the storied and long-in-developmentMewgenics? That’s currently slated for a 2025 release, but I’ll believe it when I see it.
