Pinocchio Souls-Like ‘Lies of P’ Releasing for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Series X|S, Game Pass & PC August 2023; New Trailer

IGN has shared a new gameplay trailer for the Round8-developed Souls-like action RPG Lies Of P, finally unveiling an August 2023 release window for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Game Pass Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

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 characteristic of the source material.

We’ll keep you updated on the development and release of Lies Of P.

You can view the release window trailer for Lies of P below. The game’s grotesque imagery is primarily highlighted alongside the various seemingly otherworldly threats that players will need to contend with in this strife-filled world.
