Surprise! Neowiz shadow-dropped a chilling new chapter during Summer Game Fest — and it’s everything fans hoped for.

Lies of P: Overture is a story-rich prequel DLC that throws players into the eerie final days of Krat before the Puppet Frenzy. With new areas, bosses, a bow weapon, and 20–25 hours of additional gameplay, this expansion is a must-play for any fan.
