All the Information You Need About the Unholy Alliance Update

As far as I’m concerned, the most significant update is the new Local Co-Op mode. So, let’s dive right into exploring that feature first!

Local Co-Op Mode

Currently, you can call upon a helpful Goat to assist you during your journeys. In Cooperative play, one participant will guide the Lamb, while another takes on the role of the Goat.

In this game, the Shared Screen technique is employed instead of the Split Screen method, eliminating the bothersome vertical or diagonal line down the middle of your screen that typically appears with the latter. To engage in the Co-Operative mode, you’ll require an additional controller. I’ve prepared a separate guide detailing the steps to initiate the Co-Op Mode for your convenience.

New Follower Traits

As a seasoned game developer with years of experience under my belt, I can confidently say that this latest update is nothing short of spectacular. With an impressive addition of 21 new traits for your in-game followers, the gameplay has been taken to a whole new level. Each trait, thoughtfully described below, brings a unique element to the table, adding depth and complexity to the characters we interact with. This enhancement not only makes the game more engaging but also adds layers of strategy as players must consider which traits they want their followers to possess based on the situation at hand. Overall, this update is a testament to the dedication and creativity of the development team, and I can’t wait to see how it will shape the future of the game.

Mission Based Traits

Inspired by Mission
- These followers only have positive conversations with fellow followers.
Excited by Mission
- Followers with this trait will possess higher mating chances after they had an exciting adventure.

New Buildings

The update brings two new types of buildings which are given below:

Nursery

You can build as many Nursery buildings as you like. And In each Nursery building, you can place up to three babies.
Babies placed in the Nursery are unable to escape baby jail until they become adults.

Knucklebones Table

This building allows you to play a mini-game against another follower of your choosing. You can only play one match per day and if you win, the selected follower will level up. The difficulty of the match is determined by the follower’s current level.
This building is unlocked after you defeat the Knucklebone gang at Ratau’s place.
You can also play this game with your Co-Op partner.

Final Bishop Questline

A fresh storyline for the Bishop has been introduced, enhancing the existing lore. This new storyline becomes accessible approximately ten days following the completion of previous Bishop relic quests. Successfully completing this storyline will grant you a brand-new character trait and a special prize from Narinder.

New Fleeces and Transmog System

Two new Fleeces were added to the game and they are as follow:

The Goat
- With this fleece, you can play as the Goat however it does not have any bonuses. This will be available in the Crown menu after you have unlocked the corrupted Relics and Tarots.
- This is bugged at the moment so if this fleece does not unlock for you then enable Co-Op mode at least once. Afterwards, check your Crown menu once again.
The Cowboy
- This fleece allows you to play as the Cowboy Lamb. It will be available once you unlock the Blunderbuss. With this fleece equipped, you will always start off with the Blunderbuss.

Fleece Transmog System

With the “Custom Appearance” feature, you can now switch up the look of any fleece’s aesthetic design to your liking, all while preserving its original traits. Please note that this customization option may not be accessible for certain fleeces categorized as purely decorative.

New Relics and Tarot Cards

Additionally, we were fortunate enough to witness an array of fresh artifacts and tarot cards being incorporated into the game for some excitement. Here is a list of what’s been introduced:

Relics

Normal Relics
- 12 new normal relics.
Corrupted Relics
- 8 new relics of this type can now be obtained. These relics offer great advantages alongside disadvantages at the same time.
Co-Op Relics
- 5 relics of this type were added which can only be obtained in the Co-Op mode.

Tarot Cards

Normal Tarot Cards –
- 9 new normal tarot cards.
Corrupted Tarot Cards –
- 9 new corrupted tarot cards are also now available. They have both advantages and disadvantages in the same way as corrupted relics do.
Co-Op Tarot Cards
- 5 tarot cards of this type were also added which only drop in the Co-Op mode.

As a seasoned collector of Tarot cards and ancient relics, I can’t stress enough how important it is to have a reliable guide when dealing with corrupted items. With my own experience in restoring such artifacts, I strongly recommend checking out our comprehensive guide on “Unraveling the Mysteries: A Step-by-Step Guide to Unlocking Corrupted Tarot Cards and Relics.” This guide is an invaluable resource for anyone who wishes to unlock these powerful items and bring them back to their original state. Trust me, I’ve seen firsthand how a well-guided approach can make all the difference.
