Bloodborne-inspired Soulslike video game Lies of P has been confirmed to have multiple endings.
Game Director Ji-won Choi recently spoke to IGN at Gamescom 2023 revealing that players will encounter three different endings depending on the decisions they make throughout the game. The game features a lying system and the extent of players’ lies throughout the game will determine which ending they get.
“The lies in the game are not only lies that you are fooling others [with] but also white lies you have to do to make others feel better,” Choi said. “You have to understand others’ emotions to make a decision so [we] want users to feel how they would as a human in the game, and it will show in the ending.
“There are three different endings and if you get to the end of the story there’s a big surprise, a twist, waiting for you. The decisions that you made throughout the game will lead you to endings, so it’s not something that you have to pick at the ending, it will lead you throughout the game.”
Choi revealed that there will not be any obvious story paths for players to follow to achieve each ending. There will be unclear consequences to players’ decisions that will not unfold until later.
Lies of P launches on September 19, 2023 on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
