Betrayal is an unlockable passive item added in The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth.
Effect
- Upon taking damage, all enemies in the room are charmed.
- It won't trigger if there are less than 2 enemies in the room.
- Enemies are able to damage each other with projectiles. If an enemy is damaged by another enemy, they will attack that enemy instead of Isaac.
Notes
- This item is extremely strong against the second and third phase of ???, as its own eternal flies become charmed and deal massive damage to the boss, often killing it after even just two uses.
- The initial effect only affects projectiles. Enemies will not deal contact damage to each other, unless hit by a projectile, at which point they will deal contact damage to their attacker.
- Charmed and friendly enemies can trigger the item.

Trivia
- This is a reference to Judas betraying Jesus after the Last Supper, leading to Jesus' death by crucifixion.
- Betrayal's updated behavior bears a similarity to the monster infighting mechanic from the Doom series, Heretic, and Hexen, which similarly causes enemies struck by another enemy's attack to prioritize attacking that monster over the player character.
