Release Date, Pricing, And Details For The Binding Of Isaac Revealed
Edmund McMillen, one half of Super Meat Boy's Team Meat, is just over a week from releasing his next game, The Binding of Isaac, on Steam.
According to his blog, the game will release on September 28 for $5.
In the blog post, McMillen speaks at length about how he created a sense of progression in the randomly generated world and how difficulty is increased.
He also explains some of the unlockable character classes based on Dungeons & Dragons. The titular character, Isaac, is a fighter and is joined by Cain (thief), Maggy (cleric), and Judas (wizard). Check out the blog post to see how to unlock these bonus characters.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
