Save 20% On No Rest For The Wicked For PC

No Rest for the Wicked, the latest game from the studio behind the Ori franchise, entered early access on April 18.

6 Comments

The gorgeous action-RPG No Rest for the Wicked launched in early access on Steam this week, letting PC players experience the dark fantasy adventure's first act plus a selection of side content. The game retails for $40, but you can grab it for just $32 at Fanatical. Alternatively, you can get No Rest for the Wicked for $31.31 at Green Man Gaming if you're an XP member.

Regardless of whether you order at Fanatical or Green Man Gaming, you'll instantly receive a key that can be redeemed on Steam.

No Rest for the Wicked is the next game from Moon Studios, the acclaimed development team behind Ori and the Blind Forest and Ori and the Will of the Wisps. No Rest for the Wicked swaps the whimsical 2D side-scrolling of the Ori games for a dark fantasy top-down action-RPG approach inspired by Diablo and From Software's Dark Souls, while featuring the rich, hand-drawn visual style the studio is famous for. Just, y'know... way grimmer and darker than anything we saw in Ori.

No Rest for the Wicked's initial early access build features the first chapter of the campaign, side quests, optional boss battles, and a repeatable dungeon. Being a loot-driven RPG, there's also plenty of gear to collect. Be aware that buying No Rest for the Wicked's initial early access build is not the full game (at least not yet). As with other early access titles, it's lacking all the features and content planned for the final version--and chances are early players will encounter bugs and unpolished elements, but that's to be expected. However, early access players get an exclusive Carim Armor set as a reward for helping playtest the game, and thanks to these deals, you can save on the game, too. This one purchase grants access to future updates and the full version of No Rest for the Wicked.

While Moon Studios has not announced a firm release date for No Rest for the Wicked, the final 1.0 release will include online co-op and competitive modes for up to four players, the full story campaign and world map, a farming system, and tons of additional side quests, bosses, dungeons, loot, and more. All this content will added via routine updates during the early access period on PC. The final version will also launch on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.

So this isn't really a gaming news and review site anymore, it's just a site to navigate you to online stores. It's a shame how low this site has sunk and I've been here for decades. It's Gamespot in name only now.

So anyone know if this one also springs infuriating instadeath timed boss fights on you? That's why I quit Ori.

@oldtaku: I have no idea. I just came to say that I beat Will of the Wisps last week, and, while it's a great game, the instadeath boss fights are the literal worst. So many unnecessary deaths. So much unnecessary frustration. It's still more than worth playing through, but good grief, those moments are a nuisance.

@makchady: Yikes! That sounds like a rage-quit-and-never-play-it-again moment for me. I hope they don't have that in this game because I am really looking forward to playing it.
