In celebration of Cult of the Lamb's one-year anniversary, an 'unholy union' with Don't Starve Together was announced today.
Developers Massive Monster and Klei Entertainment revealed details of the new crossover event, which brings content and discounts to both titles. A trailer for the event shows creatures and characters from each game coming together.
For Cult of the Lamb, a new Penitence mode will need players to keep their followers alive by ensuring they eat and sleep. However, a special Webber follower breaks the rules by never dying from starvation. Don't Starve Together-themed decorations will also be available for your cult's compound.
Don't Starve players aren't left out, with a new Cult of the Lamb crown trinket discoverable in the Oasis biome. Offering this crown to the Antlion boss earns blueprints for a Tabernacle decoration, Brick Flooring to increase speed, and fancy Gold Flooring.
The crossover also brings login bonuses to each game, with free items and pet skins crossing over from the other title.
Cult of the Lamb and Don't Starve Together are on sale across platforms, making now the perfect time to pick them up. With the new content updates, fans of either game have more reason to give the other a try.
The event celebrates the success of Cult of the Lamb, which has sold over 2 million copies since its launch one year ago. The comedic RPG about building your cult resonated with many gamers. While very different in tone and style, both titles share elements of gathering resources and crafting items that should appeal to fans of either game.
This unholy communion will tempt gamers to step outside their comfort zone and see what the other side has to offer - be it starting a cult or surviving the wilderness. One thing is clear: your free time is about to be sacrificed.
