Just four years after the indie hit Cult of the Lamb sacrificed our hearts for all of lambkind, gamers learned they are getting a massive new content update.
Devolver Digital dropped the very good news during Gamescom Opening Night Live and gave us a look into the mysterious new Woolhaven. The content update will be a paid, full-length DLC expansion when it releases in early 2026.
Winter descends, and a long-silenced deity stirs beneath the snow.
Yngya, the forgotten God of the lambs, summons you to restore the flock and reclaim what time has erased. But as you breathe life into what long passed, a creeping Rot awakens, spreading corruption through the sacred mountain the lambs once called home…
Not all who tread this peak come seeking redemption. Upon the frozen summit, a wolf prowls — his pack hungers for war with the covetous Gods. Deep within the hidden caverns, a shadowy figure waits, blade honed and patience fraying. Restless spirits drift along the ridges, each bound by former sins. The past was buried for good reason — will you unearth it, or will it consume you?
The update will have players trying their hardest to return the souls of Woolhaven back to their home, learn the long-forgotten history of lambkind, rebuild the fallen town to its former glory, and reclaim the mountain. You’ll need to survive the winter, explore the mountain and venture into an all-new realm in Cult of the Lamb.
The expansion will also include ranching and breeding rare animals that “provide wool, warmth and when desperate, precious meal.” Your followers can also tame, ride and care for the creatures.
On August 20, 2024, developer Massive Monster dropped the Pilgrim Pack, which included a new questline, new follower forms, outfits and decorations. It’s the last content pack to release for the game. So it’s only fitting that we’d get the big reveal nearly two years to the day from its launch.
