Lies of P, an action RPG in the Soulslike genre, published by Neowiz and developed by Round8, saw a successful launch last month, garnering critical acclaim and building a dedicated fanbase. Surprisingly, within less than a month of its release, it appears that the publisher has intentions to develop downloadable content (DLC) for the game.
A recent job posting on Neowiz's website, specifically related to Lies of P, explicitly mentioned plans for DLC production. This information was shared on social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, by user @Okami13_ and others. Given that Soulslike games frequently receive multiple DLCs, it comes as no surprise that Lies of P is following suit.
Although the job listing appears to have been removed, as clicking the careers link redirects to the Lies of P homepage, the news has already circulated. The roles advertised included a DLC content planner, quest planner, and scenario writer. As Lies of P places a strong emphasis on its narrative elements, it's reasonable to expect that the DLC will expand the story and world, introducing new locations, characters, and more.
Lies of P presents a dark reinterpretation of the Pinocchio story, featuring a post-credits scene with Dorothy from "The Wizard of Oz." An NPC's voiceover in this scene hints at a search for Dorothy, stating, "I will find her, for sure. Another key of ours: Dorothy." Players are speculating that this post-credits scene might serve as a teaser for the upcoming DLC or even a potential sequel.
At its launch on September 19, Lies of P received widespread critical acclaim, boasting a Metacritic score of 84 at the time of this writing. It's a remarkably well-executed Soulslike game, especially considering that the developers were newcomers to the genre. As the DLC has not yet been officially announced, fans eagerly await further details.
