Over on Reddit, Nicalis’ Tyrone Rodriguez stated that the Wii U and 3DS versions of The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth will not feature save syncing. In other words, it won’t be possible to transfer save data between the two versions.

Rodriguez also ruled out local multiplayer for The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth, as well as patches. He explained:

Patching after release is unlikely. It might seem like a “small” feature, but it’s actually quite time consuming to add multiplayer. Even local wireless multiplayer has effectively the same amount of code as doing true online MP.

Lastly, Rodriguez confirmed that The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth will cost $15 on Wii U and 3DS. There’s no release date yet, but we should be hearing something this month.
