Thank you to everyone who has been reporting your bugs! We are on hands working to fix any bugs you come across.

Following your purchase of the DLC, ensure your game is fully updated.
To access Woolhaven, you need to have defeated the Bishops - Leshy, Heket, Kallamar and Shamura. (you do not need to have defeated The One Who Waits).
A Yngya statue will appear; it shouldn’t be hard to miss on the north side of the base by the teleporter. The Statue will ask for some resources:

5 Crystals
5 Silk
1 Sin
These are very common items, and Sin can be generated by your followers. Once you have given the Statue all of these, Woolhaven will start!

Ewefall : the snowy mountain exterior, and home to Marchosias, the leader of the Free Pack who is determined to end all Gods (that means you).
The Rot: a grotesque mountain interior. The enemies in The Rot have been driven mad with pain and suffering. They will rip themselves apart to stop you, mutating and duplicating.

Visit Our Merch Shop Today! (Global Store)
As many of our players know, partway through the development of our Woolhaven expansion, our Audio Director and friend Narayana Johnson AKA River Boy passed away.
Narayana had finished a lot of the new tracks and motifs for Woolhaven before we lost him. He’d recorded and directed a bunch of the new VO and worked on countless other sonic moments that bring a game to life.
He worked hard on everything, until it was all as close to perfect as he could make it - We hope that when you hear it, you can hear the love he poured into his music.
The music you hear in Woolhaven was gathered from his work, and came to life in collaboration with amazing talents, such as:
Ray Vavasis AKA Arrowbird, a Sydney-based singer/songwriter & producer
Kalyani Ellis AKA Local Woman, Narayana’s niece and lifelong collaborator
Craig and his team at Power Up Audio.

Drops from streams will be redeemable, but drops will not show up in-game until January 22nd after being claimed and redeemed (make sure your game is fully updated on that day).
You don't need to own Woolhaven to enjoy these drops.

We're huge believers in uplifting our creators big or small, and so we are so stoked to use our platform to highlight an incredible streamer who is so passionate about our game. We couldn't think of a better way to celebrate Woolhaven, than celebrating the community that we've built.
In this showcase, we delved into what exactly you can expect from Cult of the Lamb: Woolhaven!
From an exclusive look at gameplay, to new mechanics, this video answers many of your questions around the latest Cult of the Lamb story expansion, arriving January 22nd!
With the introduction of Woolhaven, a chill will spread across the Lands of the Old Faith.
The God of Winter, Yngya, will ask you to find the souls of Lambs passed, scattered across the mountain, and to return them to Woolhaven. However, with each soul returned, Yngya grows stronger - posing new challenges to your cult.
Keep your cult fed and warm - lest your Followers start to freeze! Special meals, decor and clothing will help.
You can even let your Followers enjoy a cosy little hot tub party!
Build snowlambs, throw snowballs, and enjoy the festive season with your Followers, who have new traits, quests and quirks to keep you entertained.
Expand your base! There will be ample room for all the new structures and decor - like the Exorcism Altar, allowing you to reroll Follower traits, or the Work Tent allowing you to assign even more jobs to your faithful Followers!
As you play, you will be able to revive Woolhaven to its former glory, by returning lost souls, clearing rubble, and even rebuilding shops.
Unlock ranching - where you can ride, pet, tame and even harvest your adorable ranching animals.
Find and reforge legendary weapons!
Interact with the former residents of Woolhaven
There are two new dungeons to explore in Woolhaven!
Ewefall : the snowy mountain exterior, and home to Marchosias, the leader of the Free Pack.
The pack roams the freezing mountain side, determined to end all Gods (that means you).
Marchosias is a wolf of science, and he's found a way to harness the storms that plague the mountain to power his dark experiments. His wolves hunt as a pack, determined to end you.
Marchosias will never give up the mountain to a God. If you want it, you'll have to take it by force.
The Rot: a grotesque mountain interior. A living, pulsing place full of vile and furious creatures.
The enemies in The Rot have been driven mad with pain and suffering. They will rip themselves apart to stop you, mutating and duplicating.
The Rot is a festering, burning place that corrupts all it touches - but what is it, and where did it come from?
Help an ancient dragon hatch her eggs, bring a monstrous garden to bloom, guide an old friend home (or take your revenge), and even lead a wayward moth to her sexy destiny.
We have been working on a brand new merch drop to go alongside Woolhaven, better than we have ever done before!

We have received lots of questions about this DLC - here's some more information around what features we showed last week. That's right, there's more to this DLC than what you've seen so far, which will be revealed as we inch closer to 2026.
Winter descends, and a long-silenced deity stirs beneath the snow.
Yngya, the forgotten God of the lambs, summons you to restore the flock and reclaim what time has erased. But as you breathe life into what long passed, a creeping Rot awakens, spreading corruption through the sacred mountain the lambs once called home…
Return the lost souls of Woolhaven to their spiritual home and learn the long-forgotten history of lambkind!
You will need to rebuild the fallen town to its former glory, and reclaim the mountain to restore Yngya’s depleted power, but beware; there is always a price to be paid.
You will need to endure harsh blizzards, and freezing temperatures that threaten your Cult’s survival. New structures will help to keep your Cult warm, and protect your Followers from frostbite and famine.
Ranching will allow you to care for and breed rare creatures that provide wool, warmth and precious meat. Tame, ride and let your Followers care for these majestic creatures!
Upon the frozen summit, a wolf prowls — his pack hungers for war with the covetous Gods. Deep within the hidden caverns, a familiar shadowy figure waits, blade honed and patience fraying.
Venture into a new realm battered by bitter storms, crawling with creatures corrupted with the Rot lurking beneath the snow. Battle through two vast new dungeons, where the echoes of the past refuse to rest! New weapons, enemies, and bosses await.
Every soul redeemed on the mountain defiles it further, threatening all of The Lands of the Old Faith. Can you undo the sins of the past?
That which was sacred now rots, and nothing is as it seems. Last of the lambs, Woolhaven’s fate rests with you.
This DLC brings with it SO much new playable content - way more than what any of our previous content updates have had. You can expect much more than what we've teased so far, from WOOLHAVEN.
We'll share more info as we continue to head towards 2026!

One Last Note From Us
As many of you know, our Audio Director and long-time friend, Narayana Johnson AKA Riverboy, passed away earlier this year.
Narayana had a huge hand in the creation of the music and voice-over work for Woolhaven before he passed this year.
These songs are some of our favourites he ever made, and with the help of Power Up Audio and Arrowbird, who had been working closely over the last couple of years on the soundtrack with Riverboy, they have helped create the sound of Woolhaven from Narayana's work.
A lot of our boy is in this update, it is truly something special - we're super excited to share more information with you very soon.
