Summary
Lies of P: Complete Edition earns a highly positive Switch 2 verdict, with the 2023 Soulslike praised for matching top FromSoftware-inspired games while adding its own identity.
Three difficulty options, deep weapon-mixing, upgradeable Legion Arms and included Overture DLC help make its demanding combat more flexible without losing the genre’s challenge.
Switch 2 performance is generally playable across handheld and docked modes, but handheld Quality mode is described as rough and handheld Performance does not consistently hold 60fps.
A day-one patch is expected to improve handheld Performance mode, while the game’s world design, bosses, music and portable play are framed as reasons the port still stands out.
