Lies of P is a Souls-like action RPG that takes players on a dark, twisted journey through a Belle Époque-inspired setting. The game reimagines the classic story of Pinocchio as a horror-themed action adventure with gruesome enemies and a challenging combat system.
In the fictional city of Krat, they need to guide the protagonist, a puppet named P, in a world filled with deadly puppets in his quest to find Geppetto and become a real human.
The demo of Lies of P allowed players to access the first two chapters of the game, which included introductions to key characters and even some boss fights, as Neowiz described.
Lies of P is slated for release this September 19. Neowiz will roll out the game on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
