The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth was released for PC back in October last year and ever since console fans of the series have been screaming out for the much anticipated DLC. If you're still in the deep dark depths of the unknown then here's what you can expect from the expansion: new game modes, over a hundred new items, trinkets, and room designs, two new characters, new enemies, new bosses, new transformations, new challenges, new unlocks, new secrets, new achievements, and much more.
A release on the PlayStation 4 was promised late last year, but that never happened; many fans became sceptical that it was even coming to the console. However, this past month details have been subtly announced about Afterbirth PS4, if you know where to look.
Just this week, the developer on The Binding of Isaac, Ed McMillen, took to his game's blog to confirm that the PS4 version of Afterbirth is finished and has been submitted for approval from Sony: "Afterbirth is complete and been submitted, we are just waiting on approval and once they give us a launch date we will post it ASAP!"
Meanwhile, on Twitter, the founder of publisher Nicalis Tyrone Rodriguez has shared a screenshot and also confirmed that it is hoping to release the DLC this month.

Any idea if the Vita version is cancelled?
@Melucine No idea. @Simon_Fitzgerald is your man.
@get2sammyb @Melucine The latest news on the vita version was that they were having technical issues but heard nothing since then.
@Melucine I think I read somewhere some time ago that there won't be this DLC for PSV.
I really wish they bring it for Vita too,still playing there!
Me too. And I hope it happens. I wonder about cross-save feature if that doesn't happen - would be still possible to cross-save after this?
Really a shame that this expansion has been delayed so long on handhelds and consoles. Tyrone admitted they have very limited knowledge on how to optimize the engine they're using for BoI, and that was one of the reasons it was taking so long. Maybe they should've been working on that instead of announcing new games left and right and doing ARG events......
@Napples true they could of spent more time on that but the thing with The Keeper was pretty cool
