From the developers of the highly acclaimed Ori series comes a brand new RPG game, No Rest for The Wicked. With their signature flair, Moon Studios crafted the game’s visuals with vibrant colors and Borderland-like graphics and character models. No Rest for The Wicked is considered one of the most promising RPGs of the year.

The developers said the game will eventually come to PlayStation 5 and Xbox series X/S. But there have been no official announcements regarding a full-fledged release of the title, with only the Early Access version made available to players. Recently Moon Studios released a new patch for No Rest for The Wicked, introducing a new wave of content.

While some games witness their full release soon after their early access release, there have been instances where a title remains in its early state for years. With input from the audience, developers have honed these games to perfection before their full release. This is mostly the case for large-scale RPGs like No Rest for the Wicked.

Set in the year 841, following the death of King Harold, rumors of Pestilence, a great plague, started spreading like wildfire. The player character is a Cerim, a member of an ancient order sworn to destroy the Pestilence.

The game features a hand-crafted painterly art style, brutal strategy-based combat, and boss fights that “will punish every mistake you make.” No Rest for the Wicked is an isometric action RPG. It is a hybrid game that draws inspiration from various genres, including Diablo, Dark Souls, and Game of Thrones.

The game heavily emphasizes the themes of the church’s influence, corrupt politics, and moral decay. In future updates, co-op and other multiplayer options will likely be added to the game.
