Cult of the Lamb will be getting a major paid DLC expansion, titled Woolhaven, planned for release in early 2026. The announcement came with a brand-new trailer revealed at Gamescom Opening Night Live 2025, giving fans their first look at the next chapter of the cult management roguelike.
This marks the fifth DLC expansion for the game and the first since 2024, further proving that Massive Monster and Devolver Digital are dedicated to expanding the world of their hit title.
A Milestone for Devolver Digital’s Best-Seller
Originally released in August 2022 across multiple platforms, Cult of the Lamb has become the best-selling game Devolver Digital has ever published. Its clever juxtaposition of cute, cartoonish visuals with dark and twisted cult rituals has earned it critical acclaim and a passionate fanbase.
The unique blend of roguelike dungeon crawling and cult management simulation has kept players hooked for years, and Woolhaven looks to be its biggest expansion yet.
New Antagonist: Marchosias, the Marquis of Hell
The Woolhaven trailer showcases both fully-animated cinematics and in-game footage, teasing a chilling new threat. Players will face Marchosias, a wolf-like marquis of Hell drawn from the Ars Goetia.
Alongside Marchosias, the Lamb will encounter grotesque abominations and even what appears to be a group of evil lambs, promising fresh narrative twists for the expansion.
Fresh Gameplay Features and Weapons
The trailer revealed several exciting new gameplay additions:
-
New Weapon Type – The Lamb is shown wielding massive spiked ball-and-chain weapons, crushing enemies with devastating overhead swings.
-
Mounted Companions – A new yak-like creature can follow the Lamb and even serve as a rideable mount around the cult’s camp.
-
Cult Events – Clips show cultists reacting with fear and moving together ominously, hinting at new base events and rituals.
-
New Enemies & Bosses – From flesh monstrosities to infernal beasts, Woolhaven promises a host of new foes.
A Darker Future for the Cult
Cult of the Lamb: Woolhaven appears to be pushing the game’s narrative and mechanics into darker and more ambitious territory. The expansion not only adds new content but also deepens the unsettling charm that made the base game so beloved.
Fans can expect more news about Woolhaven leading into its early 2026 release window, with additional gameplay showcases likely planned throughout 2025.
