Another feature of the game is excellent enemy design and a very good story, which makes the experience even more immersive. In a recent mysterious video, Neowiz revealed that Lies of P could be receiving a DLC soon that could be shown in the upcoming Xbox Summer Showcase Event.

Many fans were sure that this studio would be introducing the new expansion at the Summer Game Fest, but this presentation ended without any mention of the game or any content whatsoever, making the community wait a little longer for this. Fans of the game are eager to see what it will show next.

In the video, the users could see a new weapon that was not part of the original title. This expansion could bring new enemies, new locations, and more mechanics to this original game that shocked and surprised all the soulslike fans. The Xbox event will be showcased on June 9th.

I'm a big fan of movies and videogames in general. I really love Pokémon and Godzilla. One of my favorite games is The Last of Us, Part II. A compelling and well-written story is always welcome.
