The ending of Lies of P heavily implied that a sequel was coming – and it looks like “we’re off to see the Wizard.” Here’s everything we know so far.

Spoilers for the Lies of P ending will be unavoidable here, as the cliffhanger ending of the game clearly communicates where the series is heading. You have been warned. Here goes.

So, during the Rise of P ending, which is considered the best (and likely canon) ending of Lies of P, some shadowy figures are seen discussing Pinocchio holding one of the keys to eternal life and that a girl called Dorothy with ruby slippers holds another. This is of course a reference to the Wizard of Oz, which is being teased as the next game in the series.

A girl with ruby red slippers suggests we may be heading to Oz in the next game.

Will there be a Lies of P sequel?

While the ending suggested the Lies of P story is not over, during a Director’s Letter video, Lies of P director Ji Won Choi confirmed a sequel was planned while discussing the game’s upcoming DLC.

He said, “Our highest priority is developing the DLC and working on our sequel,” confirming that a sequel is in the works.

The sequel is unlikely to be a Lies of P 2 though, instead, it looks like the developers are creating a shared universe, with works like Pinocchio and now The Wizard of Oz serving as inspiration for the first two entries. Therefore, we expect to see a Soulslike game take place in a much darker version of the Land of Oz.

It will be interesting to see if/how Pinocchio or the events of Lies of P play into a possible Wizard of Oz-themed sequel, and where else we could go in subsequent games. As characters like Dorothy have already been revealed, more could be in the upcoming DLC.

Does Lies of P 2 have a release date?

No, not yet. All we know is the team will be working on the game once they finish up with the Lies of P DLC. The platforms the game will be released on are also unknown.

So, that’s all we know about the Lies of P sequel so far. For more on the biggest upcoming releases, check out our pages on some of the most-anticipated games that have been announced:
