Is No Rest for the Wicked coming to PS5 and Xbox?

No Game for the Consoles?

Yesterday, Moon Studios released No Rest for the Wicked, the developer’s new action RPG game, to Early Access. The team behind Ori and the Blind Forest – and its sequel Ori and the Will of the Wisps – has been thanking fans for quick feedback, but many will be wondering whether it’s coming to other platforms.

While it’s only available on Steam at the moment, there are plans to release No Rest for the Wicked on current-gen systems, including the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. There’s no release date for these versions yet, but the stores for both PlayStation and Xbox do have pages for the game, with options to wishlist it.

Sadly, for anyone hoping for a PS4 or Xbox One port, it doesn’t appear as though the studio is looking to release the game on these platforms.

What about No Rest for the Wicked on other platforms?

As for other PC clients, there also doesn’t seem to be a version of the game on GOG or Epic Games Store. However, if you have access to Nvidia’s GeForce Now cloud service, you can play it there.

No Rest for the Wicked is so far getting some mixed reviews on Steam. It’s worth remembering that it’s still in Early Access, so there are almost certainly going to be teething troubles. However, Moon Studio is acknowledging some of these issues, and is looking to address some of the more egregious ones.

If you’re not familiar with the game, here’s a quick overview of the story:

The year is 841 – King Harol is dead. As word of his death echoes throughout the kingdom, the crown passes to his arrogant, yet untested son Magnus.

Even worse, the Pestilence, an unholy plague not seen for a thousand years, has returned. It sweeps across the land, corrupting everything and everyone it touches. Madrigal Seline, a ruthlessly ambitious figure in the church, sees the Pestilence as a chance to prove herself in the eyes of her god.

At the time of writing, it’s sitting at the number two spot on Steam’s Top Sellers list. But then again, this isn’t anything too spectacular for anticipated releases, especially from an award-winning developer, so it’s almost certainly going to drop. Still, gives us something different to look at than all the Fallout games that are currently in the charts.

So, just to recap: No Rest for the Wicked is currently a PC exclusive title for now (Steam and GeForce Now, specifically). PS5 and Xbox ports are being planned, but we don’t know when they’re likely to drop.
