A fresh update for *Lies of P* is now available across PC and consoles, delivering bug fixes and gameplay improvements. The 1.9.0.0 patch is a game-changer, making it much easier to access the Overture DLC during a second playthrough. 
Previously, players had to replay most of the game, but now the DLC campaign becomes available from Chapter 5 at the ‘Path of the Pilgrim,’ allowing players to dive into the new content more quickly.
Aside from this convenience, the patch makes some crucial adjustments to the difficulty curve. Players will find that monster difficulty has been reduced in subsequent playthroughs, while stats for certain standard monsters in the Overture DLC’s first playthrough have been tweaked to provide a smoother challenge. These changes are expected to make the game more accessible to a wider range of players, especially those who found the initial difficulty a bit too punishing.
The patch also resolves a series of bugs, such as issues with benefit items not being properly delivered and some progression blockers that halted progress in certain parts of the game. These fixes should smooth out the overall experience and ensure that players can enjoy *Lies of P* without the usual interruptions.
Personally, the difficulty tweaks are a welcome change. I found the regular enemies in the Overture DLC a bit over-tuned during my first playthrough, but despite this, the expansion itself was a fantastic experience. The story and setting are just as rich as in the main game, and for lore enthusiasts, it offers a deeper dive into the world of *Lies of P*-it’s an essential addition for anyone who wants to explore the game’s universe further.
*Lies of P* is now available on PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and Xbox One.
