Riding the wave of success from their acclaimed Soulslike RPG, developer Neowiz has confirmed exciting news for fans: the development of Lies of P 2 is not just underway. Still, it will be leveraging the cutting-edge capabilities of Unreal Engine 5.
The original Lies of P was a standout game in a year brimming with instant classics, delivering what many consider the best Soulslike experience from a studio other than FromSoftware. Its top-notch graphics and intense action gameplay won critical and commercial acclaim.
Following the success of Lies of P, Neowiz announced in November that a sequel was in development.

This transition promises to elevate the game’s visual and interactive fidelity, building on the impressive foundation laid by Unreal Engine 4 in the original game.
