Cult of the Lamb update “Sins of the Flesh” will launch on January 16, publisher Devolver Digital and developer Massive Monster announced.

The companies also announced that Cult of the Lamb sales have surpassed over 3.5 million copies since its launch on August 11, 2022.

Here is an overview of the update, via Devolver Digital:

About
“Sins of the Flesh,” the next free update for cute cult sim Cult of the Lamb, will offer loyal Followers a slew of worldly pleasures on January 16.
In its biggest and most wicked content update yet, the Cult’s tendrils extend even further with a blasphemous beneficence of quests, features, improvements and a deliciously evil new resource that rewards those leaders prepared to yield to the Sins of the Flesh.

Key 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 Life – Shiny 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, Fire – Blast 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!
Watch a new trailer below.

3.5 million units sold in nearly one year a half is seriously impressive! I bet both the developers and Devolver are very happy with these numbers and when sales taper off they can put it on GP and PS+ for more $$$.

I just bought this over the last couple of weeks but only played about half an hour on the deck so far. Think I'll wait until after this update before diving in properly.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
I don't follow this game much, but the last I heard they were pulling it from being sold (over the Unity shenanigans, if I remember correctly).

Guess that got resolved? Or it was a joke?

Not heard anything about it since the Unity stuff was going on so I think we can assume it's resolved (or it was a sneaky tactic by the devs at the time to get a bunch of panic sales).
 
I met the art director in the pizza line at ArcTanGent just after the game had released. He was wearing the shirt. He was surprised anyone knew about the game. Nice to see how well it’s done since then. He was a nice dude. I told him the soundtrack was dope. #coolstorybro.
