Cult of the Lamb update added to this week’s eShop overview

This week’s eShop roundup begins with an update to the wonderfully quirky Cult of the Lamb, bringing local co-op to the game. We were big fans of the original release, and an update like this sounds like a promising way to improve the experience.

Meanwhile, a classic Pokémon title has joined the Switch Online collection. Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team, originally released in 2005 on the Game Boy Advance, is now free-to-play for those with an online subscription.

There’s also an interesting sale this week, with Bethesda games like Doom and Wolfenstein on sale. If those styles are your thing, be sure to check out the current deals.

As always, there’s a long list of new titles to consider, so let’s get started! Check out the new releases below and let us know which games you’re playing this week.

Nintendo Switch

• Cult of the Lamb – Unholy Alliance Update – Heretics never rest, and the Lamb needs an ally. Unholy Alliance introduces a new playable character to Cult of the Lamb: the Goat! Summoned by blood and born of corruption, this evil new ally can join the holy Lamb in local co-op. Crusade through dungeons, slay heretics, build your cult, and seek new powers together. But there’s more: In addition to co-op play, the Unholy Alliance expansion also adds new tarot cards, relics, buildings, furs, follower traits, follower quests, and other secrets to discover! The Cult of the Lamb – Unholy Alliance Update is available now on the Nintendo Switch system.

Game Boy Advance – Nintendo Switch Online

• Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team – You suddenly find yourself in another world, a world where you are now a Pokémon yourself, able to talk and communicate with other Pokémon. But what is your true purpose and destiny in this Pokémon world? That is the real mystery! As the hero of this journey, you begin the game with a personality test, where the results determine which Pokémon you will become from a variety of options. From there, you’ll select your partner Pokémon before being whisked away into a world full of Pokémon to befriend and dungeons to explore. Assemble your rescue team, tackle mysterious, shifting dungeons, and engage in strategic, turn-based battles in this game originally available on the Game Boy Advance system!
