Lies of P Complete Edition Hits Switch 2 on August 6

NEOWIZ released the download version of Lies of P: Complete Edition for Nintendo Switch 2 on August 6, 2026, priced at 7,980 yen including tax. The Complete Edition bundles the base game Lies of P with the expansion content Lies of P: Overture, a prequel to the main story. Developed by ROUND8 Studio, the souls-like action RPG reimagines the fairy tale The Adventures of Pinocchio in the Belle Époque-inspired city of Krat, following the protagonist Zeppet's Puppet as it pursues its fate and the truth hidden in the world. The Switch 2 version has performance optimized for the console, and a post-launch update enables smoother graphics in handheld mode. It also includes difficulty adjustment options and challenge modes added with the DLC release. A packaged version, produced in partnership with iam8bit, is scheduled for October 2, 2026, priced at 7,900 yen. The base game and Overture together have surpassed 4 million cumulative sales worldwide, excluding subscriptions. Game director Choi Ji-won called the Switch release a historic moment for the team.

The download version launched at midnight Japan time, and the Switch 2 edition is rated CERO D, for ages 17 and up. The package version was briefly moved up to October 1 before U&I Entertainment Japan confirmed it would stay on the original October 2 date.

Director Choi Ji-won said the Switch release is "a new historic moment for us" and that the team built the Complete Edition "to deliver a player-first experience" to Nintendo fans who waited a long time. He called Lies of P "the crystallization of the development team's effort and passion."

GAME Watch adds that the protagonist, Zeppet's Puppet, is "awakened and guided by the mysterious woman Sophia" as it unravels the mysteries of Krat. The same piece frames the full story as covering "the collapse of Krat and the legendary secrets behind the puppet rampage."

Game Spark notes the Overture DLC launched last year and was "highly praised by game critics and fans." The same outlet ties the release to the June 9 Nintendo Direct, where the Switch 2 version was first shown. Related reporting from Game Spark also notes a sequel to Lies of P has moved into full development, per the developer's November 2025 investor materials, and that the base game was offered as a PS Plus free title in August 2025.
