Singapore Switch 2 owners have four days to clear their calendars. Lies of P: Complete Edition drops on the Nintendo Switch 2 eShop on 6 August 2026, bringing NEOWIZ’s critically acclaimed soulslike — plus its haunting prequel expansion, Lies of P: Overture — to handheld for the first time. And it’s not a compromised port: a day-one patch adds a dedicated 60fps performance mode for handheld play, making this arguably the definitive way to experience Krat on the go.

What’s in the Complete Edition

The Complete Edition bundles two full games in one package: the base Lies of P and the Overture prequel expansion. The base game casts you as Pinocchio — Geppetto’s puppet brought to life — navigating a city in plague-fuelled collapse, fighting corrupted automatons and decidedly untrustworthy humans. The twist that defines the series carries straight through: your choices about truth and deception shape your humanity, unlocking different endings depending on how much you lie along the way.

Overture — which received a 4 out of 5 in Final Weapon’s review — serves as a prequel set in the same world, and by most accounts it retains or improves on the quality of the base campaign. Buying the Complete Edition means you get both on a single digital licence, no separate purchases required.

Switch 2 Specifics: 60fps in Handheld

The headline feature for Switch 2 owners is the 60fps performance mode, arriving via a day-one patch at launch. That’s a meaningful bump for a soulslike, where reading enemy animations and landing parries precisely is everything. The game’s visual fidelity in Krat’s gothic Belle Époque architecture and boss arenas should hold up well at full 1080p docked; the patch targets smooth handheld performance for players who want to explore the city on the move.

The digital version launches 6 August on the Nintendo Switch 2 eShop at US$69.99. There’s no confirmed SGD price as of this writing — check the Singapore eShop for your local price. A physical version produced by iam8bit, which includes Boss Lore Cards and a special O-Sleeve variant, ships from 2 October 2026.

What to Expect From Overture

If you played the base game on PS5 or PC and held off on Overture, the Complete Edition is a good reason to revisit. The prequel expansion explores the events before Pinocchio’s awakening, expanding the lore of the Stalker order and the mechanics of the Ergo currency system that drives Lies of P’s upgrade loop. NEOWIZ treated it as a substantial addition rather than a cosmetic drop — Final Weapon called it content that "largely retains the quality of the base game, if not improving upon it in some aspects."

How to Get It in Singapore

The Complete Edition will be available via the Nintendo Switch 2 eShop from 6 August. If you want a physical copy, iam8bit’s edition is available to pre-order now with shipping starting 2 October — worth noting that it ships internationally. For Singapore players who want to explore Krat in handheld, 6 August is your date. Check our game news section for coverage of more Switch 2 releases this August.

With Lies of P: Complete Edition landing on Nintendo Switch 2 on 6 August 2026, NEOWIZ has sent preview builds out to the press — and the early verdict is reassuringly positive for Switch 2 owners who have been waiting to experience one of the best soulslikes of recent years entirely in handheld mode.

What the Preview Roundup Says About Lies of P on Switch 2

Nintendo Life compiled impressions from multiple outlets and the picture is one of a port that punches above expectations. As relayed in Nintendo Life’s preview roundup, Gaming Trend described it as “a very well thought out port, and just excellent all around.”

The Outerhaven called it “a surprisingly strong port” in their hands-on impressions, and COG Connected concluded in their Switch 2 preview that “while the Switch 2 version might lag behind the PC and PS5 versions in visual quality, the game remains incredibly fun and addictive — Lies of P is a must-play.”

The sole point of friction noted across multiple outlets is Quality Mode in handheld — it can dip below a locked framerate in more complex areas. The recommendation from most reviewers: stick to Performance mode for the smoothest experience while handheld.

Performance Modes and the Day-One Patch

The Switch 2 version ships with multiple graphical presets. In handheld mode you choose between Performance and Quality; in TV (docked) mode, there are three options including a balanced middle ground. A day-one patch will add a dedicated 60fps Performance mode for handheld — so download that update before you start your first run.

For Singapore Switch 2 owners who use their console primarily in handheld on the MRT or during lunch breaks, this is reassuring news. The port has been built with Switch 2-specific features in mind, including GameChat support and optimised controls for the console’s Joy-Con.

What’s in the Complete Edition

The Complete Edition bundles the full base game with the Overture DLC expansion, which was previously sold separately on PC and other consoles. Overture adds a prequel chapter exploring Krat’s world before the main story begins, giving series fans additional lore and fresh challenges.

If you missed Lies of P when it first launched in 2023, this is the definitive way to experience the game: Pinocchio’s mechanical Krat, its stunning Belle Époque aesthetic, and the Issen counter-attack combat system — all on a screen you can take anywhere. A playable demo is also available on other platforms if you want a taste first.
