The upcoming Woolhaven DLC will add nearly as much playtime to Cult of the Lamb as its base game. Gamescom's Opening Night Live event featured a series of gaming announcements, among them the Woolhaven DLC for Cult of the Lamb. The announcement trailer showed various features through a quick succession of clips, making it clear that the DLC would add a lot more content to the game compared to previous expansions.
As more information came out, such as blog posts from the development team, it became clear that this would be a full-blown expansion pack. According to the posts, Woolhaven will allow players to deepen their knowledge about the story of "lambkind." Fans know that the lamb was going to be sacrificed at the start of the base game, but now they can learn more about the lamb's past and where they came from. To do this, it seems that players will have to restore a new region, explore more dungeons, and survive in hazardous weather conditions.

Massive Monster Is Launching the Biggest Cult of the Lamb DLC Yet
The blog post describes an array of features and additional content, which are briefly shown in the trailer, and fans started trying to figure out just how big this expansion is going to be. In a YouTube short published by Massive Monster, one of the developers mentions that the DLC is actually almost as long as the base game. For players wondering how long it takes to beat the Cult of the Lamb base game, the answer is about 15 hours, but if they go the extra mile and dig into all the side and post-game content, they'll actually get 20 to 25 hours out of it.
The developers have released free DLC for Cult of the Lamb in the past, but that is not the case here. Woolhaven is a paid DLC pack, but the developers assure fans that they will enjoy it just as much as the base game, and it will be worth their money.
At the moment, it is unknown how much the Woolhaven DLC for Cult of the Lamb will cost, and the exact release date hasn't been revealed yet either. It is possible that the DLC isn't 100 percent complete and the developers still need some time to decide on a price and date. For now, it is known that Woolhaven is coming in early 2026, and expectations are high. Players who want to keep track of it can wishlist it on Steam for now, and it should become available on other platforms in the near future as well.
