Perfect Timing for Lies of P

The arrival of Lies of P comes at a strategic moment for players eager to explore the depth of Round 8’s innovative action-RPG, especially following the recent release of its expansion, Lies of P: Overture.

A review of the Overture DLC described it as “an expansion in the true sense of the word”and a “worthy purchase for those who loved the original and still want more.”With the base game now available at no additional cost beyond an active PS Plus subscription, players have an opportunity to experience this acclaimed title along with the DLC for a fraction of the original price. This setup offers fantastic value, particularly for enthusiasts of Bloodborne and titles from FromSoftware who may not have ventured into Lies of P yet.

Be sure to take full advantage of this impressive new lineup and delve into these exceptional gaming experiences starting August 5!
