Lies of Phas smashed its way past three million copies sold, nearly two years after its launch across PC and consoles. This news comes on the heels of the release ofLies of P’s DLC, which was shadow-dropped on Jul 29, 2025.
South Korean developer Neowiz struck gold with its dark spin on the classic tale of Pinocchio when it rolled outLies of Pin 2023. Despite being available as a day-one title on Xbox Game Pass, the action-RPG still managed to move units at an impressive rate, reaching sales of one million within a month of its arrival. Following this success, a new expansion calledLies of P: Overturewas announced in February 2025and was released to a positive reception. As expected, it now turns out that the launch of the DLC has reignited interest in the Soulslike title and pushed it towards another major commercial achievement.
In a new announcement,Lies of Prevealed that it had crossed the three million mark in sales. This statement arrived about 21 months after the RPG’s launch in September 2023. The Neowiz-developed title had reached sales of one million back in October 2023, meaning that it took the game over a year and a half to hit the latest milestone. It’s important to keep in mind thatLies of Pwas a Game Pass day-one title and only left Xbox’s subscription service in March, which would have slowed down its sales. For the same reason, the number of units sold doesn’t exactly translate into the number of players, which is apparently much higher. In March itself, thenumber ofLies of Pplayers was announcedto have touched seven million.

Understandably,Lies of Phitting a new sales milestone right after the launch of its highly awaited DLC may not be a coincidence. That’s becauseLies of P: Overture, which brings tons of new content, boosted the original’s engagement considerably. On Steam alone, the DLChelpedLies of Pbreak its previous peak concurrent player countand enabled it to reach a new high of 30,095 players. The recent discounts on the base game, the latest of which saw its Steam version get a 50% price cut, may have also contributed to the fantasy title selling well.
As fans once again dive into the world of Krat, thanks toOverture’s release, Neowiz devs are hard at work making theLies of Psequel. Given that the plans for a follow-up were confirmed just several weeks after the first game’s launch, it may be fair to expect development to be well underway at the moment. Earlier in 2025,Neowiz’s financial reportrevealed that the sequel was planned to arrive around FY2026, which starts on Jun 24, 2025, and ends on May 30, 2025.
