![]() At last year’s Gamescom, publisher Neowiz teased that “the more lies told, the more human players become, with all the advantages and disadvantages it entails.” It’s a cryptic explanation of how lying works in-game, but presumably, Pinocchio’s nose won’t grow every time, right? ![]() Unlike many Soulslikes, your in-game choices could impact the story here. Also, is it just me or is Pinocchio pretty this time around? Pinocchio’s arm doubles up as a grappling hook to pull enemies in, which is always cool in a hack n’ slasher, and makes even more sense when you’re playing as a puppet. This Soulslike looks just as aggressive as you’d expect, emphasising quick dodge rolls and last-minute, anxiety-fueled parries. The newest trailer doesn’t show off any Bloodborne-style combat, but we’ve had plenty of looks at that already, including a fight with a gorilla robocop. It also reminds me of Gears 5’s weird infected robots, with tentacles and slime hanging off their metallic arms - equally gross and cool. The result is a boss-sized monstrosity that sits halfway between Lovecraftian horror and industrial defect. The trailer follows a blob wobbling through very Victorian streets before it slides into some automation and uses the machine’s body as a puppet. Lies Of P’s newest trailer is mostly a black screen with a lot of VO, but we get a clear look at Pinocchio's daddy Master Gepetto this time. The loveable puppet isn’t waiting too long for his next comeback, as the RPG Soulslike Lies Of P is coming to PC and Game Pass in August. Like all good fairytale characters, Pinocchio gets a revision every couple of years - except for 2022, when he was adapted thrice (mostly in bad films, except for the Del Toro one).
