Everything you need to know about Lies of P’s latest Overture DLC, including the official patch notes, difficulty modifiers, and more.
After years of waiting, Lies of P’s Overture DLC is finally out in the wild, giving players access to a brand-new chapter in the critically acclaimed souls-like. While Overture is built as an expansion to the base Lies of P, it’s not devoid of content. Instead, the DLC takes a page out of Shadow of the Erdtree’s book in terms of the amount of content on offer. The expansion boasts a brand-new map for players to explore, as well as a plethora of new weapons, Legion Arms, and, most importantly, bosses to discover.
Alongside the DLC, developer Round 8 Studios also released a major title update for the game. The update essentially unlocks the expansion while also adding new QoL features to the game.
The biggest new addition (apart from Overture) is the difficulty options. Similar to other souls-likes, Lies of P shipped with a fixed difficulty. However, with Overture’s release, Round 8 Studios has added two new difficulty modes to the game, giving new players more options to optimize their playthrough. Here’s a look at the patch notes for Lies of P Overture DLC.
