With Lies of P fans coming up on almost a year since the release of the Overture expansion, you think there would have been an update on the sequel. Thankfully, NEOWIZ has obliged, confirming that it’s passed the prototype stage and entered full-scale development. Unfortunately, it didn’t have much else to share in its Q1 2026 earnings results.
The company did speak about ROUND8, which also worked on the Souls-like action RPG, and how it considered narrative to be a “core competency” of the team. It’s why Seung-ho Jin and Kay Lee were recruited as directors despite having backgrounds as scenario writers.
Of course, both are busy leading their own projects, with Choi Ji-won heading up Lies of P 2 (or whatever it ends up called). However, it wouldn’t be surprising if they lent their narrative experience to the project, even in an advisory role.
With Summer Game Fest coming up on June 5th, and Overture having shadow-dropped at the showcase last year, you have to wonder if perhaps NEOWIZ will share a teaser for the sequel. Time will tell, but with more than four million copies sold for the base game and Ji-won promising he wouldn’t disappoint fans with the sequel, anything is possible. Stay tuned for updates until then.
