Cult of the Lamb blends the resource management of building up a cult of adorable followers with roguelike crusades as a little lamb cuts down non-believers of old faiths. The game launched in 2022 and was a critical and commercial success, which led to the developers, Massive Monster, following up with the Relics of the Old Faith update.
The official Twitter announcement and accompanying video are all we have seen of Sins of the Flesh so far. It features the Lamb surrounded by followers who have cast off their traditional red tunics for the protection of precariously placed fig leaves. The cult joyfully performs a ritual around a bonfire and chants. According to the Cult of the Lamb Twitter account, the social media team for the game has been hiding Easter eggs in tweets for weeks in order to tease Sins of the Flesh.
If you've been holding out for Cult of the Lamb for some strange reason, the game has been marked down to celebrate the upcoming content. Cult of the Lamb is available on Xbox, Steam, Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation.
