‘The Binding of Isaac: Repentance’ DLC Delayed From Summer Release
The upcoming The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth DLC in Repentance has become the latest victim of the current Coronavirus pandemic. The Binding of Isaac creator Edmund McMillen tweeted today that the DLC will be delayed from its original summer release. No word on the new release date.
McMillen also took the opportunity to update fans on The Legend of Bum-bo, a spin-off to The Binding of Isaac, which was released back in November. The game is being handed off to a new dev team in order to do the porting duties, but will also be in charge of updating the PC version (which is available on Steam).
1. Repentance is obviously still in development. we are quite far along, but still need to add a few more bosses, items, a cutscene or 2 and bonus things youll shit your ass about. our goal was end of summer, but due to the lag caused by the pandemic it may take longer. pic.twitter.com/oZWp5K6K8C
