Lies of P Surpasses 1 Million Units Sold in Less Than a Month; Director Excited for Future Updates

Neowiz announced that the Round8-developed Souls-like action RPG Lies Of P has reached 1 million units sold in less than a month after release.

“This incredible milestone for Lies of P proves the potential of Korean console games on the global stage,” said Seungchul Kim, co-CEO of NEOWIZ. “The Lies of P project was a challenging endeavor for NEOWIZ and Round8 Studio, and we take great pride in what we achieved with this title.”

“The reception has been incredible so far, and we are beyond thankful that over 1 million players have already embarked on their journey through Krat,” said Jiwon Choi, Director for Lies of P. “Likewise, we are excited for what the future holds for Lies of P, and can’t wait to share more when the time is right.”

Lies Of P tells a dark story of Pinocchio. Players assume the role of the beloved character and must navigate through a dark Belle Epoque world where dread is found around every corner. The once beautiful city of Krat has become a living hell, and Pinocchio will need to find Mr. Geppetto to unravel the mystery of what happened.

Players will need to navigate the streets as Pinocchio faces off against demon-like enemies. To assist, systems such as weapon and item creation are available. However, the feature of lying is implemented where the more you lie, the more human you become, with all the advantages and disadvantages that entails. It sounds quite unique, not to mention the characteristics of the source material.

Lies of P is available now on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC via Steam on September 19, 2023.
