Devolver Digital and Massive Monster have just released a fresh content drop for all Cult of the Lamb players! This major content update, called Relics of the Old Faith, is the first update for the game since it was first released, to praising reviews, and it is released on all platforms for free.
The update will feature a brand-new post-game storyline in which a mysterious being asks you to conquer revamped crusades, enemies, and bosses with the help of Relics; usable items that bestow unique effects upon the Lamb, enhancing combat in a multitude of different ways. Conduct Sermons to unlock new Relics and keep track of them in the Relic Book as you uncover mysterious new lore concerning "The Three Ducks."
Growing a cult isn’t just about defeating enemies and converting non-believers, however, so Relics of the Old Faith also heralds a host of new content to ensure a happy commune. Assign a Follower to do the meal prep for you in the Kitchen, cooking up to 30 meals for your hungry flock, and solve their sleeping problems with Shared Shelters that house up to 3 Followers. As your Cult continues to grow, you’ll need a nice new Crypt to store the mounting corpses but keep things looking pretty with Farm Plot Signs that use the Lamb’s powers of suggestion to encourage Followers to organize their crops.
They have also brought a number of improvements to the game, including combat improvements also come in the form of Heavy Attacks. This enables the Lamb to embark on deeper and more challenging expeditions than ever before. Players will need to combine all of their new skills to take on tougher enemies boasting beefier attacks.
Cult of the Lamb is available now for PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. Are you ready to return to your flock now that there is this major update?
