Lies of P sells 1 million copies in less than a month

Lies of P released last month to a wave of success, with many deeming the Souls-like to be one of the best in the genre (outside of FromSoftware’s own titles of course). Just under one month since its arrival, the game has managed to surpass 1 million copies sold.

Making the exciting announcement on Twitter, the official Lies of P page said “Thank you for 1 million copies sold…We would like to express our sincere gratitude to all the citizens of Krat. Thank you to everyone who helped us and accompanied us and we hope you join in our future journeys as well.”

This figure is doubly impressive when considering the fact that Lies of P was made available day-one on Xbox Game Pass – meaning the total number of players is likely significantly higher.

For the uninitiated, Lies of P is Bloodborne-inspired action-RPG which lets you play as the famous Pinocchio in a cruel, dark Belle Époque world. The team at Neowiz have been highly receptive to fans over the past months, with them making many gameplay tweaks based on feedback from the beta earlier this year.

All this had led to a title which is polished, positively inspired and purposeful in its intent – and has clearly resonated with fans. It will be interesting to see what the team at Neowiz does next.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
