Today during Gamescom Opening Night Live, developer Neowiz released a new trailer for Lies of P, the Souls-like action game set in a dark Belle Epoque world.
In Lies of P, you play as the fabled puppet mechanoid Pinocchio. The game begins with Pinocchio waking up at an abandoned train station in a city called Krat, which he discovers has been consumed by an inexplicable madness, turning once-friendly-faces into gruesome enemies. He also finds a note calling upon him to find his creator, Mr. Geppetto. You are then tasked with navigating Pinocchio through a «living hell filled with unspeakable horrors» as you search his creator and attempt to become human.
