Some have a specific way to play - we hear you! Fully customise your controls for optimal heretic-slaying efficiency.

Sneak Peek of the first Cult MAJOR CONTENT UPDATE to celebrate our biggest sale!
Thank you for an amazing year
After years of work, we released Cult of the Lamb in 2022. It has reached so many more people than we could have ever imagined and that's thanks to every single of one of you who have played and supported our little Lamb.
We appreciate your loyalty to the Lamb and to say thank you, we're ending this year with the first reveal of our FREE Major Content Update.
Holiday Specials
Before we get to the new content, we wanted to share our Holiday Specials. To celebrate the season, Cult of the Lamb is currently on its BIGGEST SALE EVER at 25% off here on Steam!
We have also released two new Follower Forms, the Penguin and the Lion. These are available as Twitch Drops by watching participating streamers play the game until January 5.
And we have been nominated for Outstanding Visual Style in the Steam Awards. Vote! Vote! Vote!
It's the perfect time to dive into the Darkwood and find out what the little Lamb is all about with lots of new content around the corner.
Free Major Content Update - Sneak Preview
Along with fixes and improvements, we have been working on adding more depth to the game. Based on your feedback, this major content update will focus on combat and dungeon gameplay.
The Lamb has some new moves! Press and hold the attack button for a HEAVY ATTACK! This new sword move can knock back many enemies in one SMASH when you're being swarmed.
Each weapon type has its own Heavy Attack. This Axe boomerang throw provides a ranged option. Charge the Axe throw to launch it in a straight line before it flies back to your new position, slicing enemies both ways.
The Dagger's Heavy Attack spawns pain from the sky. Multiple Daggers will drop in a line and each of them will knock enemies farther away.
and so much more!
Adding a new attack to each weapon will give you more options in every encounter. However, we're also working on many other new features that will add depth, difficulty, accessibility and quality of life. We've been listening to your feedback and are addressing the most requested improvements in this free Major Content Update.
Can you spot anything different about Barbatos? There will be many good reasons to rematch against your favorite foes.
We have another round of fixes scheduled for the very start of the New Year but after that, we will be working on this Major Content Update. It's A LOT so it will take more time in the cooking pot.
We don't say this enough but thank you for enjoying our game. We hope you have a great New Year!
Love and devotion from the Massive Monster team
