No Rest for the Wicked 1.0 Delayed to 2027, Still Subject to Change

---

Moon Studios has delayed No Rest for the Wicked 1.0 from October 2026 to March 2027, according to an official announcement. The studio also said a public beta is coming in December, and the Steam and PlayStation reward windows have shifted.

Moon Studios says the extra time will go into performance, the class system, and general polish. That is the familiar trade-off with a game like this: delay again, or ship before it is ready. This does not read like a routine ARPG release.

More useful is the testing plan. December brings the first public beta, and the following months will add more closed and open tests. Moon Studios seems to be using that feedback to course-correct, not just buy time. For a game built around combat feel, stable performance may matter more than any trailer.

The wait is the downside. Steam players who want the Founder’s Reward will need to buy the game before January 1, 2027. PlayStation preorders will open in January 2027, and those players will also be eligible for the Founder’s Reward. Moon Studios says it will schedule a new Wicked Inside stream as soon as possible and keep posting updates.
