The first batch of games in those three categories has now been revealed (courtesy of SteamDB), and there are some interesting names in each list. The list of Unsupported games is a pretty short one with just 5 games, though it does have one notable name- Persona 4 Golden. The game’s own page says that Valve is still working on adding support though, so hopefully this won’t be permanent. 

24 games so far have the Playable tag. The list includes the likes of The Witcher 3, Slay the Spire, Inscryption, Subnautica, Valheim, Tomb Raider, Rise of the Tomb Raider, NieR: Automata, Bravely Default 2, and more. That means that right now, these games are playable on the Steam Deck, but might still run into a few issues here and there. 

Finally, there’s the first batch of Steam Deck Verified games, which lists 38 titles right now and is already looking impressive. Games that have already been fully optimized for the upcoming handheld device include the likes of Portal 2, Celeste, Hollow Knight, Dishonored, Cuphead 2, Psychonauts 2, Dark Souls 2, Dark Souls 3, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, Death’s Door, Death Stranding, Mad Max, Scarlet Nexus, Aliens: Fireteam Elite, Hot Wheels Unleashed, the upcoming Total War: Warhammer 3, and many others. 

You can check out the full list of the Steam Deck’s Verified, Playable, and Unsupported games so far below.

The Steam Deck is scheduled to launch in February.

The Binding of Isaac Rebirth, the gory and incredibly disturbing roguelike platforming game from Edward McMillan (one of the brains behind the incredible Super Meat Boy on Xbox 360), was announced to be coming to Xbox One, Wii U, and New 3DS systems back on April 1; now, we know exactly when it will be releasing- The Binding of Isaac Rebirth launches on these systems on July 23.

The game will launch feature and content complete on all of these systems, although the stuff from the new expansion won’t be included in any version. Also important to note, the game will only run on a New 3DS system- if you have any of the older Nintendo 3DS models, you can’t play the game on them.

In addition to these systems, The Binding of Isaac Rebirth is also currently available on PS3, PS4, PS Vita, and PC. Stay tuned to GamingBolt for more coverage and information.

One of the detriments of April Fool’s Day is that legitimate news often slips through the cracks. One such item is the announcement that Edmund McMillen’s The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth will be releasing on the Wii U, Xbox One and New 3DS. The demented rogue-like title was originally released in 2011 but saw a remake last year that was even more critically acclaimed.

It should be noted that there won’t be any censorship in the game. If you’re on a Nintendo platform and are worried about the same, then rest easy. Of course, it should also be noted that the old 3DS models and 2DS will not receive the game, making The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth yet another New 3DS exclusive.

There’s no release window currently aside from “soonish” so stay tuned for more information. The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth is already available on Steam for PC, PS4, PS Vita, Mac OS X and Linux.

Rogue-like action title The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth will be receiving a new expansion next year and it will have a significant amount of content for fans. According to Edmund McMillen on his blog, the expansion will roughly double the possibilities of gameplay.

“I have big plans for this expansion, I hope to add a very huge chunk of gameplay in the form of a new game mode that will almost double the amount of things you can do.”

There will be “more enemies, bosses, new areas, endings and a new playable character as well as a slew of new unique items to play with.” That’s not counting the new game mode and 10 new items that are being created with feedback submitted by the community.

No word on when exactly the expansion will be out except a tentative 2015 release date so stay tuned for more information as the new year rolls around.

Headup Games’ The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth finally has a release date for the PS4, Steam and Vita. It will be available on November 4th in North America with a European release on November 5th.

Following the highly successful rogue-like dungeon crawler with an extremely twisted tone and atmosphere, The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth adds roughly double the content of the original along with local co-op for two players. If you own the original for Steam, you’ll receive a 33 percent discount until the game’s release.

Creator Edmund McMillen stated that, “I’m extremely happy with how Rebirth has turned out and cant wait for the now well over 3 million binding of Isaac fans to sink their teeth into a much much more meaty experience.”

Will you be re-entering the depths of despair and owning up to your sins when The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth releases this November? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
