No Rest for the Wicked
From Moon Studios, the award-winning developers of Ori and the Blind Forest and Ori and the Will of the Wisps comes No Rest for the Wicked, a visceral, precision Action RPG set to reinvent the genre.
What it feels like
The visceral, Souls-like nature and dark fantasy setting establish a harsh, unflinching darkness. Precision combat and Souls-like systems create sustained edge-of-seat pressure where mistakes feel costly.
What it's about
Dark Fantasy is explicitly tagged and core to the game's atmospheric world and setting.
How it plays
Souls-like combat is explicitly advertised as a core feature and central to the game's identity as a precision Action RPG. Close-quarters weapon combat with deliberate timing and positioning is foundational to Souls-like gameplay. Invincibility-framed dodging is a standard defensive tool in Souls-like combat systems.
How it looks and sounds
From the creators of Ori series known for hand-drawn art, and user tags indicate stylized artistic direction. Dark Fantasy and Gothic are prominent user tags indicating the visual and thematic aesthetic. Isometric perspective is explicitly mentioned in user tags, shaping the visual presentation.
How it's structured
Explicitly described as a hand-crafted world, indicating deliberate designer authorship of all spaces. Open world exploration is prominent in user tags and typical of modern action RPGs with non-linear progression. Four-player online co-op is explicitly featured and a major structural component of the experience.
