No Rest for the Wicked gets a launch trailer ahead of its early access release
With No Rest for the Wicked set to launch later this week into Early Access, the developers at Moon Studios and Private Division have dropped a new trailer for the game, check it out.
The game will come to consoles eventually, but for now its PC only via Early Access. While the gameplay is going to be refined over the EA period, the story will evolve alongside it, but we have the basis for it already, which is below.
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.
We have a basic roadmap for the games development as well, which you can scope out below, above some shiny new screens. If you want to join in on the early access fun, you can do so here later this week.
