In case you haven't been across it, Lies of P is a unique Souls-like set in a twisted world where murderous puppets roam the streets of the fictional city of Krat and where you, P, also a puppet, must fight to stop this seemingly ridiculous-yet-still-terrifying nightmare from continuing.

Oh, and it's based loosely on Pinocchio, just for good measure.

Inspired by the familiar story of Pinocchio, Lies of P is an action Souls-like game set in the dark, Belle Époque-inspired city of Krat. Once a beautiful city, Krat has become a living nightmare as deadly puppets run amok and a plague sweeps the land. Play as P, a puppet who must fight his way through the city on his unrelenting journey to find Geppetto and finally become human. Lies of P presents an elegant world filled with tension, deep combat and character customization systems, and a gripping story with interesting narrative choices where the more lies told, the more human P becomes. Just remember: in a world filled with lies, no one can be trusted…

Even though I'm not a huge fan of Souls-like games, I seriously love things this outlandish and am something of a horror game aficionado so am really looking forward to pulling some strings in this silliest of game ideas that could actually be really awesome.

Lies of P is coming to PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S this September 19.
