In its most recent earnings call, publisher Neowiz confirmed that the sequel to Lies of P is now officially in full development, having passed its prototype stage. A sequel to Lies of P was first teased by Neowiz back in November 2023, when the first game's director also showed off some concept art for the then-upcoming Lies of P story DLC.
Lies of P made a strong impression when it launched in September 2023. On OpenCritic, Lies of P is currently sitting at a Top Critic Average of 82 and a critic recommendation rate of 88%. GameRant's own Dalton Cooper gave Lies of P an 8/10 at launch, stating that the game "can be extremely fun when the combat clicks," but that it takes a bit of a time investment to reach that point. Lies of P's reputation has only grown since its 2023 launch, and many now consider it one of the best non-FromSoftware Soulslikes ever made, especially when its Overture DLC is taken into consideration as well.
