About Binding of Isaac
Binding of Isaac is Edmund McMillen roguelike where Isaac flees to the basement throwing tears through procedural floors. The 2011 Flash original with Florian Himsl hit engine limits, so Nicalis rebuilt it as Rebirth on November 4 2014 with a new engine. Afterbirth followed in 2015 with Greed Mode, Afterbirth Plus in 2017 with mod tools, and Repentance in March 2021 folding in Antibirth.
Repentance Plus arrived in 2024 with online co op and-new floors, and a standalone Switch 2 PS5 Xbox release is dated November 19 2026. Start with Rebirth, then add expansions in order, since each assumes the prior floors and endings.
Good to know
There is no separate chronological order worth listing. The expansions from 2015 to 2024 extend the same basement run rather than branching timelines, so release order is also the play order. The original 2011 Flash game is superseded by Rebirth and can be skipped unless curious about the prototype.
