Inspired by the familiar story of Pinocchio, Lies of P is set in the dark, Belle Époque-inspired city of Krat. Most recently, the demo reached the top spot on Steam’s “Daily Active Demo Players” and “Most Wishlisted Upcoming Games” categories as part of Steam Next Fest. The demo, which is also available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and the Xbox Series, gives players early access to the first two chapters of Lies of P, including boss encounters, introductions to key characters, and the opportunity to explore the city of Krat.Īccording to the press release, the response to the demo has been very positive, earning user review scores of 4.3/5 on Xbox, and resulted in the demo being one of the top 100 most-played games on Steam worldwide. Missed out on the Steam Next Fest demo for their upcoming Soulslike Lies of P? No need to worry, as developer NEOWIZ has announced that thanks to fan enthusiasm, the demo’s availability has “been extended indefinitely” ahead of the full launch of full launch of Lies of P this September.

The last game in the series was 2011’s The 3rd Birthday, which was released for the Sony PSP. Aya must now find a way to stop Eve from destroying New York City, but also the world. It’s revealed that Melissa (now calling herself “Eve”) is the living embodiment of the mitochondria, and can control other people’s mitochondria. Aya and Melissa are the only ones left, with Melissa mutating into a creature and escaping into the sewers. During the aria of the diva, Melissa Pearce, people start to spontaneously combust. In Parasite Eve, New York City police officer Aya Brea attends an opera at Carnegie Hall on Christmas Eve. That, and the indication that the first game in the series could’ve been included on Sony’s PlayStation Classic Mini prior to launch.


In fact, the last we heard anything about the series was when Square Enix had trademarked the name in Europe back in 2018. Nothing has been confirmed as yet in regards to Square Enix actually pursuing a revival of the Parasite Eve series, be it a remake or a new entry. Square Enix developed Parasite Eve as a sequel to the book and released it in 1998. That also happens to be the basis for the story of the 1995 Japanese novel “Parasite Eve” by Hideaki Sena. “Symbiogenesis”, also known as “endosymbiotic theory”, is the evolutionary theory whereby two separate organisms combine to form a single new organism. Per Gematsu, Square Enix has filed a trademark for “symbiogenesis” in Japan, with the filing made back on October 13, and being made public today. Square Enix might be taking a cue from Konami when it comes to reviving the Parasite Eve series.
