Summary
Neowiz’sLies of Pexchanging content with Team Ninja’sWo Long: Fallen Dynastycame about seemingly out of nowhere and resulted in a fascinating and mutual collaboration. It’s unknown if this is meant to be the beginning of a trend between the two studios or not, but it’s allowed for intriguing gameplay diversity in both considering what weapons were traded.
Lies of Pis currently enjoying the fruits of a bountiful franchise, especially with how lucrative and inventive it can become by drawing more public domain fairy tales into its midst. There is reasonable speculation going around that the upcomingLies of PDLC will center around aPeter Pantheme, and a post-credits tease from the base game suggests the full-fledged sequel will center aroundThe Wizard of Oz. However, Neowiz could also perpetuate its collaboration with Team Ninja and incorporate more crossovers in the future, too.
Lies of P and Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty’s DLC Crossovers
Lies of P and Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty Share Some Iconic Items
It’s possible that thecollaboration betweenLies of PandWo Long: Fallen Dynastymay have already concluded with their respective games and the content they gave each other. If that’s the case, then both games will have come away with wonderful additions in gameplay:
Lies of P
Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty’s Azure Dragon Crescent Glaive.
Armor and Bandana of the Honorable costume pieces resemblingWo Long: Fallen Dynasty.
Lies of P’s Puppet Saber and Etiquette umbrella.
Lies of P DLC and Lies of P 2 Should Crossover with Team Ninja
Team Ninja’s Rise of the Ronin is on the Horizon
Lies of Pis still scheduled to receive a DLC expansion, presumably on par with DLC content thatFromSoftware’sSoulsgameshave received, and while moreWo Longcontent seems like a shoo-in it would be terrific to see content from Team Ninja’s newest game crossover between the two.
Rise of the Roninlaunches at the end of Marchand there’s still no telling whenLies of P’s DLC will arrive, but another crossover between these studios would be great to see. There are likely many weapons or costume pieces that could make their way toLies of P, which already disregarded its Belle Epoque-era aesthetic forWo Long: Fallen Dynasty’s when it collaborated originally.Rise of the Ronincould be no different, supplyingLies of Pwith a revolver, a rifle with a bayonet, or another weapon while also receiving a weapon fromLies of Plike the Acidic Crystal Spear or Krat Police Baton.
These crossovers might not even necessarily need to be mutual; ifLies of P 2orLies of P’s DLCreceivedNiohcontent, for example, that could be incredible in its own right whetherLies of Pcontent ever makes its way toNiohor not. Of course, the success of Neowiz and Team Ninja’s games will never be contingent on these crossovers, but it creates an incredibly fun way for a bit more diversity in both by dipping into unrelated IPs loosely connected via their Soulslike roots.
