by

In Krat, we’ll fight more beasts and uncover the source of it all. The full release of P Overture’s Lies serves as a comprehensive prequel, with additional content focusing on tracing the initial spread of the outbreak to its origin.

2023 saw P’s Lies as an unexpectedly standout debut, initially appearing to me like just another clone of Bloodborne, albeit a weak imitation. However, after countless attempts and eventually completing the game, I can honestly say I was deeply touched and have eaten a large portion of humility pie.

The addition of Lies of P to the Soulslike genre is simply extraordinary, and hearing about the upcoming Lies of P Overture prequel made me incredibly excited.

Lies of P Overture Prequel Release Period

The game “Lies of P Overture” is scheduled for a summer 2025 launch, however, the precise date within that season remains undetermined.

At the Sony State of Play Event in February 2025, we had our initial sighting of Lies of P: Overture. Interestingly, its ending left us guessing that the developers might be planning a complete sequel. I won’t give away any secrets, but it certainly hinted towards more to come!

It was revealed that Neowiz Games and Round8 Studio had been collaborating on additional content for a prequel to the game – specifically, downloadable content (DLC)! The director of Lies of P recently spoke about the upcoming DLC, Overture, and its objectives in a blog post on PlayStation.

In a previous instance, you were Geppetto’s most innovative creation, waking up amidst the chaotic Puppet Frenzy, a disaster that left the entire city in ruins around you. You are now embarking on a time-travel adventure to relive the perilous journey that led to that pivotal moment. With Lies of P: Overture, we strive to perfect, shape, and conclude the story as originally conceived, according to Jiwon Choi.

Do You Need Lies of P to Play Overture Prequel?

Yes, you need a copy of Lies of P to play the Overture prequel DLC.

As a dedicated fan, let me clarify that unlike many other games, having Lies of P is an essential requirement for accessing its additional content. Unlike some titles where DLCs can stand alone, with Lies of P, you’ll need a functioning physical or digital copy to enjoy the full experience.

It’s uncertain whether this additional content is post-game DLC, meaning it becomes accessible only after completing the main game, or if it can be started at any point during the gameplay. Given that Overture is a prequel, there’s a possibility that you could access this content even without prior experience of the original Lies of P game.

We’ll make sure to update this guide as soon as we get the confirmed release date and the necessary requirements for playing Overture.
