We know, wrong game, but could you blame us? Lies of P isn't afraid to wear its inspiration on its sleeve, as it should. If you're going to imitate a game, you might as well take inspiration from one of the genre-spawning Bloodborne titles.
Lies of P, which is currently scheduled for a September 19 release - the same day that Mortal Kombat 1 comes out -, has now officially gone gold, an accolade in the gaming world marking the end of the development phase.
This announcement proves that Lies of P is now ready to play as is at the very moment, capable of providing a deep and immersive experience.
Set against the backdrop of the once-majestic city of Krat, the game offers a somber journey through its plague-ridden streets. Players will assume the role of Pinocchio, traversing this desolate, gothic world in search of Mr. Geppetto, while also hoping to unravel the enigma that has befallen Krat. The city's eerie aesthetics, reminiscent of Bloodborne, create an atmosphere of unease. Yet, it's this very setting that intrigues and draws players in.
The dark rendition of Pinocchio's tale isn't just about navigating Krat's ominous streets. Players will face off against this world's demonic adversaries, crafting weapons and items to aid in their quest. But Lies of P introduces a novel feature - lying. True to Pinocchio's essence, the more he lies, the more human he becomes. This human metamorphosis comes with both perks and pitfalls, ensuring players remain on their toes with every decision they make.
