Update: And it’s out! Go get mint saucy, Cultists!
Rejoice, lamb devotees! Massive Monster and Devolver Digital have revealed that the highly-anticipated free expansion for Cult of the Lamb, titled Sins of the Flesh, is launching on all relevant platforms next week on January 16th.
The game will also be offered up at a hefty 40% discount on select digital storefronts during the first week of launch, meaning if you’re yet to experience the cult hit from an Aussie studio you’ll have no excuse!
Alongside the release date announcement, Massive Monster has also revealed a heap of new details on what to expect from the Sins of the Flesh expansion, which will include whole new progression systems, new weapons and facilities and of course the ability for followers to fall in love and create offspring. Oh, and shiny poop!
Take a look at what’s coming in the update:
Cult of the Lamb: Sins of the Flesh Features
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 LifeShiny 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, FireBlast 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!
