The Woolhaven DLC was discounted 20 percent on Steam at 1,520 yen until June 26, alongside a 50 percent cut on the base game to 1,285 yen.

A Kickstarter for Cult of the Lamb: The Board Game raised over 100 million yen from more than 2,445 backers in one day against a goal of about 4.1 million yen, with the campaign running until August 15.
