Pinocchio-inspired Souls-like Lies of P is releasing 2023 for PC Games Pass

pcinvasion.com:

There’s certainly no shortage of Souls-like games these days. But I’m more than happy with the trend when it means we can look forward to games like Lies of P. The Bloodborne-esque action RPG by Neowix is looking better and better every time I see it. And today’s trailer, shown off during Gamescom Opening Night Live, is no exception. On the plus side, Lies of P has also been confirmed as a day one launch title for PC Games Pass when it launches in 2023.

The new trailer shows off a bit more of the story, as well as a heaping dose of action. We see the robotic protagonist, Pinocchio, interacting with an old woman afflicted by some kind of disease. Soon enough, our robot boy moves on to do what he was probably built for: fighting off violent machines. And it doesn’t seem like he’s taking the journey alone.

Pinocchio appears to have an ally of some sort hanging from his belt. This is fairly typical of games with silent protagonists. There is usually some “guy in the chair” or another guiding our hero along and providing some commentary.

This story is in development.
