Nintendo Life's review of Lies of P: Complete Edition on Switch 2 praises the Soulslike title as one of the best in its genre, arguing that developers Neowiz and Round8 Studio have understood what makes FromSoftware's games work better than many rivals. The reviewer highlights the game's immersive world, deep combat systems and strong boss design, and considers this port on a par with FromSoftware's own output, making it a strong addition to the console's library since first launching elsewhere in 2023.

Set in the puppet-ravaged city of Krat after an uprising called the Puppet Frenzy, players control P, a human-like puppet piecing together the story through documents, statues and NPCs such as Geppetto, Sophia and Gemini at the Hotel Krat hub. The review notes three difficulty options, a levelling system based on collecting "ergo", and extensive weapon customisation that lets players mix and match blades and handles, plus a Legion Arm offering abilities like pulling enemies or unleashing elemental attacks, all of which encourage experimentation reminiscent of Zelda: Breath of the Wild's weapon system.
