Since its surprise triumph in September 2023, Lies of P has become one of the most respected Souls-likes of its generation. Round8 Studio and NEOWIZ now face immense expectations as players look toward the next chapter of this dark, reimagined Pinocchio universe.
Overture: An Expansion Built Like a Full Sequel
The recent Golden Joystick Awards 2025 brought new insights into the game’s evolution. During an interview with GamesRadar+, director Choi Ji-won revisited the development of Lies of P: Overture, the major expansion released in June 2025. Far from a simple add-on, he described it as a project with the scale and ambition of a standalone title.
“We didn’t consider it a simple expansion, but rather a sequel and an entirely new project.”

This vision explains the expansion’s narrative depth, visual density, and polished gameplay. Overture was crafted to feel like a true continuation, setting the tone for what the full sequel will aim to achieve.
A Sequel Designed to Surpass Every Expectation
Choi Ji-won also addressed the future of the franchise. According to him, Round8 Studio is working tirelessly to ensure the upcoming sequel not only meets but surpasses the standards set by the first game.
The director’s confidence hints at a sequel with deeper combat systems, richer environments, and even more audacious storytelling. Fans can expect a production that pushes every boundary the original established.

Can't wait to see what they're cooking for the next entry in this universe, Lies of P and its DLC are amazing experiences. The post-credits cutscenes were also very intriguing, I'm guessing the sequel will try to follow-up on that in some way. Lies of P aside, one of NEOWIZ's upcoming titles, Goodbye Seoul, could be a pretty good one.
