Notes
- Every time Satan is defeated, the current savefile's image changes until The Negative is unlocked.
- Defeating Satan for the 1st time will unlock Champion versions of Bosses.
- Using the The Bible or XV - The Devil? on Satan will instantly kill Isaac.
- On the third wave, Pyromaniac and/or Host Hat will be extremely useful, as Kamikaze Leeches and stomping (which is considered as an explosion) will not hurt Isaac.
- Stomps are no longer considered explosions and cannot have their damage negated.
- Unlike in the original Binding of Isaac, Satan's feet don't cause damage on contact for the short time they rest on the ground after a stomp, providing a window of opportunity to deal significant damage with orbitals such as Sacrificial Dagger, or activate other contact effects like Midas' Touch.
Trivia
- Satan appeared in the Halloween Update for the original The Binding of Isaac.
- Satan's pose as a statue and during the VS Screen is a nod to the demon Baphomet, who is usually portrayed in a similar pose.
- Satan, in mythology, began as a fallen angel but evolved over time into a greater evil. This may be the reason The Fallen spawns at the start of the fight.
- The demonic speech Satan shouts at the start of his first phase reuses one of Mom's voice lines, shouting "Isaac!" in reverse with heavy distortion.
- The music that plays during this battle is titled Hericide. Hericide is a combination of the latin word herus (or erus), meaning master or lord, and the suffix -cide, denoting the act of killing.
- This music also plays during the battle against Mega Satan.
- This music also plays during the nightmare wave of Greed Mode, for unlocking the floor's Devil Room or Angel Room.
