Collecting vinyl records in Lies of P is one of the most rewarding pursuits for players looking to fully experience the atmosphere of Krat. Beyond offering incredible musical tracks that bring warmth to Hotel Krat, listening to these albums plays a vital role in increasing Pinocchio's Humanity points. Tracking down every album requires a mixture of side quest completion, NPC interactions, and thorough exploration across various chapters.
Early Game Music Records in Krat
The journey to acquire music records begins in the early chapters as you navigate the gloomy city streets. Players can obtain tracks like Feel by completing Eugénie's side story or helping weeping mothers in the city districts. Paying close attention to side quests early on ensures you do not miss time-sensitive collectibles before advancing the main narrative.
As you progress toward the middle chapters, merchant inventories begin to expand with rare items. Vendors such as the Wandering Merchant near the Malum District offer vinyl tracks like Someday for Ergo. Purchasing these items immediately is recommended so you can return to the gramophone at Hotel Krat and boost your Humanity.
Late Game and Hidden Record Locations
Later areas in the game feature records tied to complex character choices and secret encounters. Tracks such as Quixotic and Shadow Flower require players to answer specific dialogue prompts truthfully or deceptively depending on their desired playthrough path. Exploring off the beaten path in regions like the Grand Exhibition and Arche Abbey often reveals hidden chests containing additional albums.
Certain vinyls can only be acquired by resolving NPC storylines near the end of the campaign. Completing Arlecchino's riddle questline or properly deciding Subject 826's fate awards unique tracks that flesh out the lore. Missing these interactions may lock players out of obtaining the full collection during a single run.
New Game Plus Exclusive Gold Records
For completionists aiming to collect every single track, entering New Game Plus is an absolute requirement. This advanced playthrough introduces exclusive Golden Records sold by merchants throughout the reimagined stages. These special variants feature enhanced audio arrangements and provide additional opportunities to max out Humanity metrics early.
Acquiring all normal and golden vinyl records rewards players with the coveted Golden Lie weapon and unlocks specific story endings. Maintaining a comprehensive checklist during both initial and New Game Plus runs ensures no record is overlooked, allowing you to enjoy the complete soundtrack while mastering the game's challenging combat mechanics.
