Looking for the No Rest For The Wicked release time and date? No Rest For The Wicked is the newest game from Moon Studios, the developers of Ori And The Blind Forest.

Whilst No Rest For The Wicked shares the same beautiful illustrative visuals of its predecessor, it will take an action RPG route. With punishing Soulslike boss fights, Diablo 4-style hack and slash and a storyline filled with political intrigue, No Rest For The Wicked looks to be a jack of all trades.
