With 3.5 million copies sold, Cult of the Lamb from the Australian video game development team at Massive Monster is lining up to receive a major update on 16 January 2024 – and no monetary or other sacrifices are needed to enjoy it. Pitched as the “biggest and most wicked content update yet” by publisher Devolver Digital, players will be able to enjoy a tithing of new quests, features, improvements and rewards for those leaders ready to… ahem… “yield to the Sins of the Flesh”.
This content includes:
Sins and Disciples
New progression systems add more depth and complexity to managing the Cult of the Lamb. By following the sinful path, your followers will delight in gluttonous rituals, vain buildings, and wrathful doctrines. Invite your most loyal Followers to the inner circle of Disciples, a revamped levelling system of Follower progression.
Better Cult Life
Shiny poop, baneful brooms, and bigger, better buildings improve busy Cult life. Shiny poops have special effects, like yielding fruitful crops and adding XP to your broom. Levelling up your broom will make chores faster and more effective. To improve automation, there’s also a new tier for the Janitor Station and the Storage Structures so your Followers will take better care of themselves.
Ready, Aim, Fire
Blast heretics away with the new Blunderbuss weapon. When loaded, it fires big damage in close quarters to bring a new combat playstyle for your crusades. If you charge it up even more with a heavy attack, you can aim to snipe enemies from long range.
Outfits, Options and Offspring!
Each of your cultists can flaunt their Follower fashion at the new Tailor building. Once unlocked, each cultist can wear their own outfit, with 23 different styles to choose from. But your Cult is getting even more unique. When two Followers love each other very much, they might find an egg. Nurture the egg for it to hatch, then care for the offspring until they’re ready to pledge allegiance to your Cult!
To mark the update’s release, from 16 – 23 January, Cult of the Lamb will also be recruiting new followers by offering a 40%-off discount. Cult of the Lamb is now available on the PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch.
