Lies of P DLC Set for Release in Q1 2025, Round 8 Next Project Is a Survival-Horror Game

Earlier this year, publisher Neowiz mentioned that the upcoming Lies of P DLC was scheduled to drop sometime in the second quarter of 2024. It seems development of the expansion is going better than expected, as the game’s developer, Round 8, has mentioned that the DLC will now release in the first quarter of 2025 (Q1 2025).

This was revealed by the studio in a report by Korean publication EBN (translated by Google), where the studio’s next project was discussed briefly.

Lies of P Developer Is Working on a Survival Horror Game

In the same report, it’s mentioned that Round 8 is currently hiring for level designers, scenario planners for the studio’s next project, which is said to be a survival horror game.

The still-untitled project is being built on Unreal Engine 5, and is set to be released on PC and consoles. According to an unnamed Neowiz spokesperson, “It is still too early to disclose the progress of the project,” and “It is one of the PC and console games that Round 8 Studio is preparing.”

To help shore up the studio’s next game, they have recruited director Jin Seung-ho, who developed “Buried Stars” at Line Games, and Director Lee Sang-gyun, who developed “Mabinogi Heroes.”

Going back to Lies of P, the latest development update for the game was a patch released two months ago that integrated PS5 Pro support. In terms of new content, all platforms got an update for it in February of this year, which housed various in-game items.
