Cult of the Lamb's "sex update" brings poop juice and mating tents to Xbox next week

Devolver Digital's promise to add sex to Cult of the Lamb caused a domino effect of other devs jokingly contemplating how they too could implement sex into their games. Cult of the Lamb is almost ready to deliver on its promise, with the Sins of the Flesh update arriving on January 16. What does "Sins of the Flesh" entail, you might ask? Your cult will have a Mating Tent, and Devolver Digital says you'll need to hatch any eggs your followers might produce and care for it until it's ready to join your order.

So, as if sweeping up poop wasn't enough, you'll now be babysitting your followers' kids. Speaking of poop: Devolver Digital PR manager Andy Kelly says the update "makes the day to day business of running your cult less of a chore. Now, as you clean up after your messy followers by sweeping up poop, vomit, and burnt food, your mop will gradually level up and become more powerful." You can also use shiny poop to get better crops and to level up your broom more quickly.

On top of all that, there's a new option to build a tailor for your base, which you can use your resources in to make new outfits for your followers. You can also build a Drinkhouse and hire a follower as a bartender (presumably to help make the ominous Poop Juice). This will generate Sin which can be used for more Doctrines and Rituals, but intriguingly, there are also "other sinful new structures" included too which will go towards generating more Sin.

Then there's more quality of life improvements, new progression systems, a new Blunderbuss weapon, and more. As yet, there's no word on whether Sins of the Flesh will bring any more new Cult of the Lamb achievements , although the Relics of the Old Faith update did. We'll keep an eye out for more..
