Review Lies of P (PS5) - No Fibs Found in This Souls-Like Great
Woodborne
Lies of P is a game that doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Made by South Korean team Round8 Studio, it feels like the product of a developer taking its second or even third swing at the Souls-like formula. It puts the majority of other titles inspired by Dark Souls to shame, yet the only other game to the name of Round8 Studio is an...

Plus or minus?
Has 2025 been a good year for PS Plus Essential so far? We'd certainly argue that the service has been on a solid run for at least a few months now, and August's offering is mostly strong as well. Without a doubt, this month's biggest draw is Lies of P — t

News Lies of P Director 'Open' to Co-Op Possibility in Future Projects
Found Elden Ring: Nightreign to be quite "refreshing"
Having taken so much inspiration from developer FromSoftware's hugely influential run of modern action games, from Dark Souls to Elden Ring, it should come as no surprise that Lies of P director Choi Ji-won dove into Nightreign's recent network test and loved it. This begs the question: could we...
News Hand on Heart, Lies of P: Overture PS5 Story Trailer Is Incredibly Evocative
"Geppetto’s puppet… We need your help"
Lies of P is a twisted take on the tale of Pinnochio, an excellent Soulslike from South Korean developer Neowiz, and, rising above all other claimants, is the true successor to Bloodborne's currently vacant throne. Overture is an expansion expected in the Summer of 2025, and we have an evocative story...

News Like Clockwork, Lies of P Will Be Enhanced on PS5 Pro
Tick, tock
Developer Round 8 Studios has confirmed that Lies of P will join the growing list of PS5 Pro-enhanced games, although the exact specifications remain to be seen.

News Become Geppetto's Puppet with Official Lies of P Merchandise
"You troublesome little puppet"
It's hard to believe it's been an entire year since Lies of P came into our lives, injecting some hard truths into the increasingly stale Soulslike scene. If you've been missing the mean streets of Krat, perhaps you'd be interested in Neowiz's official line of merchandise. It offers shirts, hats, records, and a...
News Lies of P Sequel Jumping Straight to Elden Ring, Neowiz Seeks Open World Experience
In the belly of the beast
Lies of P emerged fully formed into a world full of Soulslikes and, even then, still managed to stand out. It should be no surprise that developer Neowiz is working on a sequel, as the game thankfully sold quite appreciably, too. Still, the studio looks like it will jump several stages on the FromSoftware evolutionary...
News Two of PS5's Best Soulslikes Join Forces Once Again in Another Collab
Lies of P and Wo Long cross streams
In case you didn't know, Soulslike titles Lies of P and Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty are best mates.

About The Game
Lies of P is a thrilling soulslike that takes the story of Pinocchio, turns it on its head, and sets it against the darkly elegant backdrop of the Belle Epoque era.
You are a puppet created by Geppetto who’s caught in a web of lies with unimaginable monsters and untrustworthy figures standing between you and the events that have befallen the world of Lies of P.
You are awakened by a mysterious voice that guides you through the plagued city of Krat - a once lively place that has been poisoned by madness and bloodlust. In our soulslike, you must adapt yourself and your weapons to face untold horrors, untangle the unfathomable secrets of the city's elites and choose whether to confront predicaments with the truth or weave lies to overcome them on the journey to find yourself.
・ A DARKLY ELEGANT AND CRUEL WORLD
Unearth the secrets of the city of Krat – a place soaked in the style of the Belle Epoque era which once thrived due to its puppet industry and now sees its streets covered in blood.
・BATTLE WITH TWISTED INSTRUMENTS
Develop a unique combat style to counter vicious enemies and terrain by weaving together dynamic weapon combinations, utilizing the Legion Arms, and activating new abilities.
・WHAT’S IN A LIE?
There will be times when you will be confronted with choices where you can give comfort to others in sorrow or despair by lying…or you can choose to tell the truth.
Carve your own path.
・A CLASSIC REIMAGINED
Experience the beloved fairy tale of Pinocchio reinterpreted as a dark, grim narrative that allows players to discover the secrets and symbols hidden within the world of Lies of P.
