One of 2023’s Best Soulslikes Drops To Historically Low Price on Steam

Lies of P is currently 40% off on Steam. This hefty discount brings the game to a historically low price on Valve’s storefront, although Steam users don’t have much longer to take advantage of it.

Developed by Round8 Studio and Neowiz, Lies of P originally hit the market in September 2023. The game, envisioned as a grimdark retelling of the classic tale of Pinocchio, presently boasts a “Strong” rating on OpenCritic, based on an aggregate score of 82 and an 88% reviewer recommendation rate. This makes Lies of P one of the highest-rated soulslikes of 2023.

Lies of P 2 Could Include a Huge Upgrade

It looks like the upcoming Lies of P sequel from Neowiz could feature a significant upgrade from the first game.

The critically acclaimed game has recently received a steep 40% discount as part of Neowiz’s ongoing publisher sale on Steam. This deal brings Lies of P down to $35.99, matching its lowest-ever price on Valve’s digital storefront. Soulslike fans have until Tuesday, November 5, to take advantage of this discount, as that’s when Neowiz’s sale is set to conclude.

Lies of P Deluxe Edition Is Also 40% Off Right Now

The ongoing promotion also extends to the Digital Deluxe Edition of Lies of P, which is presently available for $41.99, thus offering $28 in savings. The higher-tier edition of the game comes with a handful of digital cosmetics, including Mischievous Puppet’s Clothes​​​, The Great Venigni’s Signature Coat, and Mask Worn By Those Attending The Festival.

This deal offers a compelling opportunity for soulslike fans to jump into Neowiz’s hit game without breaking the bank. It also comes at a pretty convenient time, as Lies of P‘s first DLC is currently on the horizon. According to Neowiz’s May 2024 financial report, the paid expansion was most recently targeting a release in the second half of this year. With nothing else being said about its launch window since then, it would appear that the DLC could end up being a holiday 2024 release. Neowiz has yet to reveal how much the upcoming expansion is going to cost.

Lies of P Steam Price History Milestones

While $35.99 is a fairly attractive price point for Lies of P, a game with over 30 hours’ worth of content, patient gamers might have a reason to continue holding off on this purchase for just a little while longer. Namely, the soulslike has so far dropped to a new lowest-ever price four times since November 2023, finding a new low every three months on average. Since this most recently happened back in June, five months ago, there is a plausible chance that Lies of P could finally drop even lower in the coming weeks, possibly around Black Friday or Christmas 2024.

Lies of P is a thrilling soulslike that takes the story of Pinocchio, turns it on its head, and sets it against the darkly elegant backdrop of the Belle Epoque era.

You are a puppet created by Geppetto who’s caught in a web of lies with unimaginable monsters and untrustworthy figures standing between you and the events that have befallen the world of Lies of P.

You are awakened by a mysterious voice that guides you through the plagued city of Krat – a once lively place that has been poisoned by madness and bloodlust. In our soulslike, you must adapt yourself and your weapons to face untold horrors, untangle the unfathomable secrets of the city’s elites and choose whether to confront predicaments with the truth or weave lies to overcome them on the journey to find yourself.
