Gameinformer reports that Moon Studios used remote development for No Rest for the Wicked:

No Rest For The Wicked Developer Moon Studios On Why Remote Development Is Key To Its Success

No Rest for the Wicked is the upcoming action RPG from Moon Studios, the developer behind Ori and the Blind Forest/Will of the Wisps. It's also the game gracing the latest cover of Game Informer. Cover story writer and editor Marcus Stewart and I traveled to Vienna, Austria, to play the game and speak with two of its leads, tech and production director and studio co-founder Gennadiy Korol and studio CEO and creative director Thomas Mahler. 

However, while the frosted glass of the front door of the two-story apartment we entered was engraved with the words "Moon Studios", this studio is actually just Mahler's workplace. Korol met us in Vienna for the cover story, but he actually lives in Israel. The rest of Moon Studios lives around the world, because Moon Studios is completely remote – there is no headquarters to report to or central location to work. 

While remote development has become more popular as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, Moon Studios has been remote since its founding in 2009. When I asked Korol and Mahler about remote development, it's clear it's a big part of the team's winning game development formula, responsible for the aforementioned Ori games and the upcoming No Rest for the Wicked, which launches into Early Access on PC next month.

TSA checked out No Rest for the Wicked:

No Rest For The Wicked is a dark and dangerous addition to the action RPG genre

Accompanied by strains of vocal-led orchestral music, the Moon Studios title rises into view. For many, this is reason enough to sit up and take notice of No Rest For The Wicked. For the studio behind the sublime Ori series, a visually arresting and emotional pair of platformers, this is the tricky third album: a new IP, a new direction, and a launch into Early Access along with it. Taking a swing at the action RPG genre, there’s echoes of From Software alongside Diablo here, and yet, Moon Studios’ enigmatic outlook shines through. On first impressions alone, there’s nothing to be worried about for fans of the studio – excusing the decadent horrors that lie within.

Hardcoregamer speculates that No Rest for the Wicked could be hard to sell:

No Rest For the Wicked Could Be a Tough Sell

Moon Studios' foray into the action-RPG genre is quite enjoyable, even in its early state, but one nagging issue could be a bit of a hurdle.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• No Rest For the Wicked brings familiar action-RPG mechanics with subtle unique touches, like randomized loot and vertical exploration.
• Despite impressive visuals and smooth combat, the game struggles to showcase a standout feature that sets it apart from other dark action-RPG titles.
• The preview of No Rest For the Wicked teases potential with its fun gameplay, but leaves questions about narrative depth and key features for later updates.

The horror of the blank page. It's something every writer dreads. And it's a horror I was facing after trying out a preview of the upcoming game from Moon Studios, No Rest For the Wicked. I thought it would be an easy thing to cover, something easy to knock out of the park. After all, these are the folks behind the Ori games, which have been frequent Game of the Year contenders, and now not only do they have a new game, but one that's also branching out in a whole new direction for them -- action-RPG games -- which should at least be interesting. And yet, after trying it out, all I could think of was one question that lingered in the back of my mind for the longest time: "What the heck is this game's big selling point?"

The action RPG No Rest for the Wicked has been announced:

No Rest for the Wicked - Official Reveal Trailer

From Moon Studios, the award-winning developers of Ori and the Blind Forest and Ori and the Will of the Wisps comes No Rest for the Wicked, a visceral, precision Action RPG set to reinvent the genre.

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.

These forces converge on the backwater Isola Sacra, where rebel groups and the provincial government fight for control amid the isle's crumbling ruins.

You are a Cerim - a member of a group of mystical holy warriors imbued with remarkable powers and sworn to defeat the Pestilence at any cost. But the task will prove increasingly challenging as you become entangled in the people's plight and the vast political struggle of this downtrodden land. Chaos will pull you in every direction as you seek to cleanse the land of wickedness and shape the kingdom's fate.

Key Features:

• Brutal, Precision-Based Combat: Hone combat skills with a system that challenges you to be deliberate and strategic. Battle against gruesome creatures, enemy soldiers, and punishing bosses in tense, visceral combat. Feel the weight and speed of each weapon through their own move sets. Enchant armaments with runes, craft rare armor, and create bespoke character builds that fit your playstyle.
• An Epic, Human Saga: Discover a mature, dark narrative on the harsh shores of Isola Sacra. Cunning rulers and ferocious rebels vie for the throne - all while an ancient plague sweeps across the land, turning its inhabitants into monstrous versions of themselves.
• A Hand-Crafted World: Explore a painting come to life - take in the striking painterly world, meticulously built with an incredible attention to detail in a unique, ageless art style. Beauty radiates in every frame, from the dappled sunlight of the Lowland Meadows to the viscera-smeared, twisted shadows of the Nameless Pass. Each new location is home to its own people, problems, hidden treasures, and secrets to unearth.
• A Moment's Respite: Take respite in the town of Sacrament - purchase property and decorate it to make it your own. Fish on the shores, till and harvest the land for ingredients to create meals that replenish health and boost stats. Acquaint yourself with the diverse array of vendors and townsfolk and restore Sacrament to its former glory.
• Online Multiplayer: Share your world and progress with up to three friends by your side in the campaign's online co-op mode. Every quest, boss, and square foot of Isola Sacra is theirs to share with you...or they can simply venture off and do as they please.
