This Soulslike RPG from the makers of the Ori series is steeped in lore and intrigue

Characters battle in a field of sunflowers.

If rich lore, grand high-fantasy, and backstories akin to that of the Game of Thrones series get you going when it comes to action RPGs, No Rest for the Wicked is sure to fill that void after your 20th Baldur's Gate 3 playthrough is done. With it, the devs at Moon Studios—the same developer that brought us Ori and the Blind Forest and its sequel, Ori and the Will of the Wisps—have set forth on their goal of creating an epic action RPG to rival the likes of Diablo and Path of Exile.

Set 841 years after an event only alluded to as The Embrace, a young prince is poised to take the throne after his father's passing. Rumours spread that an ancient plague called The Pestilence is returning, a horrific plague that threatens to bring the heir's legacy to an end. Players take up arms as part of an ancient sect known as the Cerim, and board a ship to investigate the rumours of the Pestilence.
