The constant presence of Sophia in Lies of P
In an officially released behind-the-scenes video of Lies of P, Allegra Marland describes Sophia as a kind and generous character, but with a specific purpose in mind. Sophia provides players with only what they truly need, serving as a reliable and valuable companion in their journey. Her guidance and insights are essential to the progression of the game and add depth to the narrative.

Notably, Sophia has never been heard before, making these lines all the more impactful and significant in the game’s narrative.
