It’s almost two weeks since Moon Studios – best known for the platform series Ori – released its latest game project in “early access”. The action role-playing game No Rest for the Wicked still has a long way to go before its full launch, and work will continue long after that.
As studio head Thomas Mahler recently explained on X, the team has been getting a lot of questions about the future plans for No Rest for the Wicked. Many players seem to think that the game will have its final launch and then it’s over and done with. However, that is not true, says Mahler.
– Guys, we’re nowhere near done with No Rest for the Wicked. There is so much more that we have already built that none of you even know about, and we want to deliver this masterfully.

According to Mahler, the “early access” period marks only the beginning for the game. The team has already made plans for everything that will happen after the launch of the full version, describing the game as Moon Studio’s version of The Lord of the Rings.
– To take this analogy further, what we have done so far is the same as a preview of the first bits. [Lansering av fullversjonen] will become like our Fellowship of the Ring. And as you all know, there’s a lot that happens after that, Mahler said, noting:
– To be perfectly clear; We will be working on No Rest for the Wicked for another five to ten years.
This game therefore remains the main focus for Moon Studios for a long time to come. When asked about the Ori series, the studio head hinted that fans will have to wait a little while longer.
– I hope you now understand why we are not going to make Ori 3 in the near future.
