Lies of P sequel is a Wizard of Oz homage
The world of video game intellectual property is buzzing with whispers of new creations, and the recent activity at the European Union Intellectual Property Office has brought a particular focus on the realm of soulslike horror. Recently, trademarks related to a video game titled Wonders of O were spotted.
What makes this development particularly intriguing is the origin of these registrations. They were filed by the South Korean company Neowiz, a studio already known for publishing the acclaimed puppet-powered soulslike title, Lies of P.
Given the shared thematic landscape and the distinctive naming convention, online sleuths quickly began connecting the dots. Fans immediately speculated that Round 8, the rumored sequel from the creators of Lies of P, might be linked to this new development.
This connection led many to theorize that Wonders of O is a direct homage or continuation, perhaps exploring similar themes within the horror genre.
Alongside the sequel speculation, the chatter also extended to an untitled horror game. The emergence of these trademarks signals that Neowiz is actively shaping the intellectual property landscape, hinting at exciting new titles that draw inspiration from the moody, challenging worlds they have previously crafted.
