They are unlocked by defeating Mother with any character. Jacob and Esau are controlled as one, move at the same speed, and use the same coins, Bombs, and Keys. Otherwise, they are completely independent in terms of stats, items, and health. Both characters have collision and can be separated, though the "Drop" button can be held to keep Esau in place while Jacob is free to move around the room. If either Jacob or Esau die, they both die regardless of the other character's remaining health.

• Jacob & Esau are the twin sons of Isaac from the Book of Genesis. Esau is described as being "red all over" when he was born, hence why his skin is red in the game. The reason why Esau has a sorrowful grimace may be of a story in Genesis in which Esau traded his birthright to Jacob in exchange for a stew, a decision which he later regretted and hated his brother for.
• This is the reason for both the Birthright and Red Stew items.
• Jacob & Esau's parents both had a "favorite" son. Their mom favored Jacob, which might be why they are unlocked by beating Mother, since the character is referred to as Jacob before he is unlocked.
• Jacob & Esau's stats reflect how they are described in the Book of Genesis, where Esau is stronger but more unfortunate than Jacob.
• Esau resembles the Dople monster (in both coloration and the distinct face pattern visible on the cheeks on Esau), who mimics Isaac's movements in a similar way to how Esau mimics Jacob's movements. On top of this, they both fire blood shots.
• Only Jacob's items will be listed in the pause menu. On Isaac's Last Will, only items of the brother who died will be listed.
• Esau can be played alone by using the debug console command "restart 20"
• Their starting health and attack are respectively listed as "III+I" and "I+III" on the character selection screen.
• Before they are unlocked, they are only shown as "Jacob" on the character select screen.
• Jacob's locked icon shows him bound in chains, with Esau hidden behind him.
• He shares this with Magdalene, Cain, Samson, Eve, Lazarus, and Bethany.
• On Game Over, Jacob and Esau's name appear as "Jacob + Esau" on Isaac's Last Will.
• Besides Eden and Tainted Eden, Jacob and Esau are the only playable characters to start with a flat change to their base damage, rather than a stat multiplier.
• As such, Jacob has the lowest flat starting damage of any character, while Esau has the highest, again besides Eden and Tainted Eden.
• Despite this, Tainted Magdalene has a lower starting damage than Jacob, and several characters have a higher starting damage than Esau, owing to their starting damage multipliers.
