Cult of the Lamb comes to Switch 2 on October 22 with a free upgrade

Cult of the Lamb is getting a native Nintendo Switch 2 release on October 22. Developer Massive Monster made the announcement through the game’s official X account on October 16 (UTC), alongside a short video, and followed it half an hour later with a second post about the Woolhaven expansion and Apple Arcade.

Switch 2 version: free for existing owners

Anyone who already has the game on the first Switch can move to the Switch 2 version at no cost. Players who do not own it yet will be charged what the Switch 1 version costs; the studio linked the price to that release rather than quoting a figure in its post.

Woolhaven joins Apple Arcade the same day

The second announcement brings Woolhaven to Apple Arcade on October 22 as well. Massive Monster said it would be “a big day for the handheld divas in the cult.”

Woolhaven is a paid expansion for the base game. Its Steam page lists a January 22, 2026 release on PC. On Apple’s platforms, the base game is already part of the subscription as Cult of the Lamb Arcade Edition, which the App Store lists for iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Vision.

Background

Cult of the Lamb, a mix of roguelike dungeon runs and cult management, is developed by Massive Monster and published by Devolver Digital. Steam shows its original release date as August 11, 2022.

What we don’t know yet

Neither post describes Switch 2-specific technical changes such as resolution or frame rate, and neither says whether DLC bought on Switch 1 carries over to the new version.
