The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth is an excellent roguelike adventure game on Wii U and New Nintendo 3DS, combining randomly generated, Zelda-esque dungeons with an extremely graphic art style and theme. We awarded both versions an 8/10, praising the virtually endless amount of content that's packed in and the fiendishly addictive nature of the gameplay. While this may be yesterday's news to those in North America, European Nintendo fans have still been waiting anxiously for this messy masterpiece to reach their shores. The end is finally in sight, though, as Nicalis has confirmed the date for this title's release in the region.
On the official Nicalis Twitter page an update was posted that pegged the game for 29th October. The timing of this release is sure to delight many horror enthusiasts; not only does it come one day before Fatal Frame: Maiden of the Black Water releases in the region, but it's just in time for All Hallows' Eve.
Will you be picking this up when it comes out? How do you think Fatal Frame's release will impact this game's début? Drop us a comment in the section below.

This is great news, been looking forward to this!
Eeehhh....I get my PS4 around that time too....
Finally, been wanting for this for a while.
Yeah, right, around the same time I have to pick up Devil Survivor 2 and Triforce Heroes, not to mention Etrian Mystery Dungeon which I couldn't quite get just yet.
Too late, NoE. For the meantime, you've lost me.
EDIT - Haha, and I wasn't even taking Fatal Frame into account. Oh boy.
Just in time for Afterbirth eh?
Accounting for Nicalis time, that's March 3rd 2016, right?
I've been playing this non-stop on my Wii U. You're in for a big treat, Europe!
Great! Never played it before, can't wait!
What I want to know now is, if the Wii U and new N3DS will get afterbirth too .... would be REALLY cool ^^
I'll be grabbing this on N3DS for sure!
How much does it cost in Amerika?
Just wondering
@jmaster2710 click on this link! : https://www.nintendolife.com/games/new-3ds/binding_of_isaac_rebirth
this game could be perfect for halloween so maybe i might get this game on the new 3ds
I've spent a good 30+ hours in Isaac's disgusting company on PS Vita, and I've absolutely loved every single minute of it!
With that in mind, I've been eagerly awaiting the EU version for my N3DS, but I'm hugely disappointed that it doesn't incorporate the systems stereoscopic 3D. Still, having the map, etc on the bottom screen will be cool.
With any luck, as with Playstation platforms, maybe Super Meat Boy will join Isaac on N3DS and Wii U at some point? Fingers crossed. Though I doubt fellow indie darlings such as Fez, Rogue Legacy and Spelunky will do likewise. Well, not on 3DS. What's with Limbo ducking Nintendo's handheld?
I am interested but does the game actually play now or is it still bugged by freezing etc?
It's OK...not a bad game but certainly not a 'great' one. I didn't enjoy it anywhere near as much as I thought I would do though after all the rave reviews and hype everybody else gave it. I got it as a PS Plus game last year....after a couple of hours I couldn't be bothered with it anymore.
Would much rather play something like Idl Dew to be honest.
