River Boy, the composer and lead audio director for Cult of the Lamb, tragically passed away last year. Given how Woolhaven is the major first expansion for the title, everyone expected some tribute to him, and Massive Monster has truly delivered in that regard by honoring their memory beautifully.

River Boy Tribute in Cult of the Lamb Woolhaven Location

The Tribute can be accessed only if you have purchased Cult of the Lamb: Woolhaven because it’s only accessible during winter. Here are the exact steps to find the River Boy tribute:

  • Once you have accessed Woolhaven, wait for winter to trigger.
  • As soon as it starts snowing, make your way to Pilgrim’s Passage using the teleporter.
  • From the left side, use the blocks of ice to descend the pier.
  • Continue south across the frozen sea until you spot a small island with a palm tree.
  • Here, you can talk to River Boy, who will share some unique dialogue with you and can now join your cult.
  • After that, head back to your base, and you’ll see him at the portal.

River Boy Follower Traits

This is an incredibly touching tribute, and Massive Monster has done an excellent job honoring River Boy in the expansion. Outside of composing and serving as the audio director, he’s also responsible for several in-game voices as well, including the followers, making him a huge part of the development.

The Immortal trait, in particular, is very sweet, eternally cementing him as a follower who can’t perish. All the other traits are relevant to his skills as well, and I hope I’ve helped you find his tribute.
