Lies of P, the striking and curious game that rethinks the story of Pinocchio, recently revealed a gameplay trailer that reveals part of what he has prepared for the public.
A few months ago, developer Round8 Studio and publisher Neowiz revealed a somewhat unusual concept: it was the announcement of a game based on Carlo Collodi’s story, Pinocchio. Not much was known then, beyond that this title would focus on the search for the carpenter Gepetto (or inventor, in this case).
With the reveal of this trailer, we know that Lies of P will be located in a city ‘steampunk‘known as Krat. Apparently a massacre has occurred in this place driven by automatons. It can be sensed that these are machines that ended up rebelling against humans.
There fore, it is P / Pinocchio’s job to fight against these automata and continue his search. Despite being also an artificial creation, this is the most similar to humans. Nevertheless, It features a special mechanical arm that it will adapt for combat throughout history.
What mechanics will it have Lies of P?
In the video you can see that the protagonist can handle different weapons among which are axes and swords. In addition, he can attack enemies with fire and even use a grapple to attract others within reach. Lastly, it looks like there will be a counterattack mechanic that will allow you to deal a lot of damage by successfully blocking at the right time.
While there is no official release date yet, the game is known to be available for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and PC
