Itching for some more Souls-like action? Lies of P’s release is imminent, and the developers have given us a tasty new sneak peek into the game’s combat following the reveal of the game’s trophy list. A new Lies of P Weapon Showcase Gameplay video dropped this afternoon demonstrating the game’s “Weapon Assemble” system. Essentially, this system allows players to combine different weapon heads and handles to create unique combinations suited for all sorts of different combat styles. You can check out the gameplay video below:

Here are some of the weapons that were shown off in the video:

• Dancer’s Curved Sword Blade + Booster Glaive Handle – This weapon combines a curved blade and a long pole handle so the player can execute all sorts of quick spinning and slashing attacks.
• Salamander Dagger Blade + Master Chef’s Knife Handle – Combining a short dagger and a small chef’s handle allows the player to perform speedy stabbing attacks with a fiery flair.
• Wintry Rapier’s Blade + Blind Man’s Double-Sided Spear Handle – This defensive combo has a built-in shield at the handle to give the player a protective edge while giving them a long piercing range with a rapier blade to keep enemies at bay.
• Bone-Cutting Sawblade + Carcass Crystal Axe Handle – By throwing a sawblade on a hefty axe handle, this weapon grants players the ability to take heavy sweeping strikes and chops at the enemy.
• Live Puppet Axe’s Blade + Acidic Great Curved Sword Handle – A giant axe-like weapon, this combo is useful for big chopping attacks that dismember the enemy in just a few blows.
• Circular Electric Chainsaw Blade + Exploding Pickaxe Handle – Perhaps the coolest assembly in the showcase, this long-reaching slicer has a spinning blade at the end of a lengthy handle that electrifies enemies as it buzzes through them.
• Coil Mjolnir Head + Big Pipe Wrench Handle – This weapon is effectively an oversized meat tenderizer attached to a wrench, but it allows for a heavy swing that can completely pulverize opponents.

Additionally, the gameplay video shows off a few unique weapons:

• Proof of Humanity – What’s better than one sword? One sword that can turn into two swords as part of a flurry of attacks.
• Holy Sword of the Ark – This is a behemoth of a greatsword that can transform to have a longer handle for quicker attacks and slightly more range.
• Uroboros’s Eye – Last but not least, we have a large circular sawblade that spins up in order to rip through enemies at a speedy pace.

The Lies of P team also released another video in their “Hidden Journal of Krat” series today. If you’re interested in catching up on some more of the game’s cryptic lore, you can check that out below:
