Lies of P, the dark Pinocchio fantasy game that drew comparisons to Bloodborne, may be receiving some DLC in the near future. A recent job posting by Neowiz, the game’s developer, suggests that additional content is in development.
The job posting, originally spotted by Twitter user Okami Games, is written in Korean but has been confirmed by IGN to be for a quest planner role specifically for Lies of P DLC. One of the bullet points in the posting explicitly states that the DLC is currently being worked on. IGN has reached out to Neowiz for further details and clarification on the listing.
While the specifics of the DLC are not outlined in the job posting, fans have speculated about what it could entail based on the game’s post-credits scene. To avoid spoilers for Lies of P, please skip the next paragraph if you haven’t finished the game.
The post-credits scene of Lies of P introduces an intriguing new character: Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz. Paracelsus, a character in the game, mentions Dorothy and implies that she is important. The scene shows the legs of a young girl walking along a yellow brick road, wearing the iconic red shoes. This scene has led fans to theorize that the DLC or a potential sequel will delve further into Dorothy’s story and possibly introduce a universe of public domain fantasy characters.
Lies of P received positive reviews upon its initial release, with IGN giving it an 8/10. The game was praised for its dark fantasy world and its faithful execution of the soulslike genre. If you found the game challenging at launch, patch 1.2 has since made it noticeably easier, giving players a chance to dive back into the experience.
As of now, further details about the Lies of P DLC, including release date and content specifics, are yet to be announced. Fans will have to wait for additional updates from Neowiz.
