New Lies of P documentary teases next game “is going to be really fun and emotionally moving”
Round8 Studio has officially rebranded to Nough, the development team behind the Souls-like action game Lies of P. The new name derives from “not enough, but without the e,” embodying the studio’s core philosophy of continuous refinement and improvement. A 16-minute documentary released by the studio explores its development culture and the “Games by Gamers” motto that guides its work.
According to director Choi Jiwon, players can tell when developers are genuinely committed to quality, and this principle shaped the original Lies of P’s extensive testing and refinement process. The studio describes itself as having defining traits of “tenacity” and “determination,” with a commitment to “creating better games.”
While details remain limited, Nough has teased that the upcoming Lies of P sequel “is going to be really fun and emotionally moving.” Choi Jiwon expressed his broader ambition to “create the world’s greatest action game.” The documentary appears positioned to showcase the studio culture and development rigor that will inform the franchise’s future. The exact nature of the rebrand—whether a full rebrand or spin-off from Round8—remains somewhat unclear, but Nough now represents the creative force behind Lies of P’s continued development.
