Neowiz has announced that the sequel to Lies of P has moved past the prototype phase and entered full-scale production. Following the success of the original in 2023 and the arrival of the prequel Overture in 2025, the South Korean studio is accelerating development of this new installment, although its final title remains provisional.
The graphics engine and technical scale of the sequel 🎮
The development team is using an enhanced version of the first game's graphics engine, allowing for smoother animations and a more refined combat system. According to internal sources, full-scale production involves hiring more technical staff and optimizing load times. Neowiz aims to expand the number of interconnected areas and maintain a 60 fps rate on current-generation consoles.
The same suffering, now with a bigger budget 💀
Lies of P fans can rest easy: they will die dozens of times again, but this time with prettier graphics. Neowiz has confirmed that the difficulty level will remain, though they promise boss attack patterns will be more unpredictable. In other words, the same as always, but with a larger team so the suffering is more cinematic.
