Today, Lies of P's embargo was lifted, and we have been working hard on playing through and testing different areas on the Steam Deck, ROG Ally, and AYANEO AIR 1S for our reviews. While the game is running well so far, one big issue is stopping us from releasing our review immediately: GPU drivers.
In its current state, there are a lot of flickering and weird performance drops in very specific areas. At first, we thought this could be just an issue with the game, but per an email we received, the issue will be remedied in GPU drivers that should be released today.
Despite these, Lies of P is running very well. We will go into more detail in our full review, which will be coming tomorrow (as long as the drivers release on time), but the outlook is good. The game itself is amazing, too. I am having a blast playing it, diving into the hauntingly beautiful world, and configuring my weapons to fit my playstyle. NEOWIZ created something magical here, and I can't wait to discuss it in depth soon.
We are also planning to host our first livestream tomorrow to showcase how the game runs on all these devices, so stay tuned on Twitter (X) or Discord for more information on when and where this will happen exactly.
I also want to take a moment to thank NEOWIZ, ICO Partners, and OnePR for the opportunity to review the game. With it being such a big release, we appreciate being approved to review and work on the game, providing the information we can to show others what they can expect on the handheld devices.
Lies of P is available to pre-order on multiple different storefronts for different prices:
