Beloved Action-RPG Reaches 1 Million Total Sales as Moon Studios Invites Players to Join With Their Friends in Isola Sacra With Free Weekend and Deepest Discount Ever Before 1.0 Launch
Independent developer Moon Studios has released the long-awaited co-op multiplayer update for the dark and painterly action-RPG No Rest for the Wicked following the update’s formal reveal last December. No Rest for the Wicked Together, now available on PC via Steam via Early Access, brings players and up to three friends together across persistent shared Realms rife with new gameplay mechanics that combine the best of ARPGs and MMOs while leaving behind the chaff. No Rest for the Wicked recently reached 1 million copies sold on Steam while still in Early Access, so the game’s active community is filled with potential party members.
Shared upgrades to the game’s Soulslike combat let enemies react naturally (and desperately) to being cornered or outnumbered, and new hand-picked enemy locations means plenty of new surprises. Players can work together during downtime to share and build housing, visit newly reworked vendors, and employ a simple voting system to keep fellow players from causing too much chaos. In addition to all the co-op multiplayer features, this latest update brings numerous quality-of-life updates to No Rest for the Wicked.
There’s never been a better time for players to try out No Rest for the Wicked, as the game is now available for 40% off on Steam ($23.99/€23.99), the lowest price since the original Early Access launch in 2024 and the deepest discount that will be offered before the official 1.0 release. Moreover, the game will be available to play for free from Jan. 22 at 10am PT to Jan. 26 at 10am PT. Moon Studios is also celebrating with exclusive Twitch drops between Jan. 22 and Jan. 30, including the gorgeous “Songkeeper” and “Champion’s Statue” in-game decorative items.

“The No Rest for the Wicked Together co-op update is an incredible milestone for the entire Moon Studios team, and we couldn’t be happier that it comes just after we’ve reached 1 million total sales of No Rest for the Wicked,” said Moon Studios CEO and game director Thomas Mahler. “Our team has been working nonstop since our last major update and we couldn’t be more thrilled to meet you all in Isola Sacra once more. This update includes an all new co-op experience with free private and persistent Realms, quality of life improvements and many features our community has been asking for. With this update, we’re one step closer to delivering the type of gaming masterpiece our fans have come to expect from Moon Studios.”
No Rest for the Wicked is the third full-length game from Moon Studios, following in the footsteps of the immensely beloved Ori and the Blind Forest and Ori and the Will of the Wisps. Players take on the role of a “Cerim,” a member of a holy order imbued with mysterious powers, tasked with destroying the Pestilence, an ancient plague that has begun to consume the island Isola Sacra, itself already the site of great political upheaval and death. Players can collect and craft weapons, items, and more to turn the tide of each battle, upgrade their character and personal homestead, and play their part in an epic tale of bloodshed and bravery. It’s all brought to life in Moon Studios’ signature painterly and vivid art style that helped define the Ori series as some of the most visually appealing titles of their generation.
The Together update will serve as a robust feature for players – old and new – to join forces for an unforgettable co-op experience. Moon Studios is continuing to develop and iterate on No Rest for the Wicked ahead of the game’s 1.0 release for PC, as well as early development for console platforms.
