Lies of P Sequel Confirmed: Director’s Letter Teases Exciting Plans
Lies of P, the Pinocchio-inspired Soulslike action RPG, has been receiving high praise from both critics and fans since its release in September. In fact, we at Game Informer gave it one of our highest scores of the year. And now, game director Jiwon Choi has released a Director’s Letter with some exciting announcements for the future of Lies of P.
First and foremost, Choi expresses gratitude to the players for helping the game sell over 1 million copies in less than two months. With this success, it’s no surprise that a sequel is already in the works. “Our highest priority is developing the DLC and working on the sequel,” Choi confirms in the Director’s Letter. The development team is fully dedicated to brainstorming and exploring different aspects of these projects.
While Choi doesn’t reveal much about the sequel itself, fans who have completed Lies of P and watched the post-credits scene can likely make some educated guesses about where the story might be headed. However, it’s worth noting that these plot developments might also be planned for the upcoming DLC. The possibilities are exciting, to say the least!
DLC Teased: New Images Spark Speculation
In addition to the sequel confirmation, Choi also shares two new images from the in-development DLC. The first image depicts what appears to be a laboratory, possibly where the monstrous creatures in Lies of P were created. The second image takes us to a pirate ship on the water, indicating a potential journey to Neverland and encounters with characters like Captain Hook and Peter Pan. Of course, this is all speculation for now.
Choi expresses his excitement about fans speculating and discussing various aspects of the game as they await the DLC. Their inventiveness and creativity have truly captivated the development team and fueled their motivation to deliver an unforgettable story.
Upcoming Patch Details: Improvements and Additions
The Director’s Letter also sheds light on an upcoming patch for Lies of P. The team is actively working on making the game more approachable and has several improvements in the pipeline. Here are the details:
