Cult of the Lamb Multiplayer Update Launches With Patch Notes
Cult of the Lamb: Unholy Alliance brings co-op gameplay to your favorite cult.
Cult of the Lamb quickly became a hit for developer Massive Monster when it launched in 2022. Since then, Massive Monster has continued to support the game with several post-launch updates. The latest is the Unholy Alliance, which brings co-op gameplay to Cult of the Lamb. After weeks of waiting, the new update is finally here, letting players partner up with a buddy to take on the challenges within Cult of the Lamb. In addition to the free update, the team also dropped a new paid Pilgrim Pack, adding a new quest, five more Follower forms, and a few other goodies.
That said, the big addition is co-op. Players can team up with someone in local multiplayer and have an extra person to fight off enemies and manage the cult. There are also two new buildings and 21 new traits to play with, giving even veteran players plenty of reasons to jump back in. On top of all that, there are several new Relics and Tarot Cards to unlock and a few more quests to undertake. For the low price of free, it doesn't get much better than this.
Below, you'll find the full patch notes for the Unholy Alliance and Pilgrim's Pack updates. Cult of the Lamb is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, Switch, and PC platforms.
