Lies of P looks like Bloodborne with Pinocchio as the playable character.
Published by Neowiz and developed by Round8 Studio, Lies of P has a brutal and dark world and the kind of action role-playing gameplay established by From Software’s Souls series.
It’s inspired by the classic Italian novel Pinocchio from Carlo Collodi, and is set in the once beautiful city of Krat. You fight “hideous and twisted” automatons as P searches for Mr. Geppetto and works to “reverse the calamity that has befallen Krat”.
The video, below, shows off reactive counter-attacks and various unique weapons. Pinocchio’s mechanical arm acts as an additional tool or weapon, and can be used as a grappling hook to pull in enemies.

Here’s the official blurb:
“As Pinocchio himself, you must navigate through a dark Belle Epoque world where all of humanity is lost. The once beautiful city of Krat has become a living hell, and you must find the famed Mr. Geppetto to unravel the mystery of what happened to both yourself and the world around you.
