Ori Studio has pushed back the launch of No Rest for the Wicked, removing the 1.0 release from the 2026 calendar. This delay means players who expect to buy the full version next year will need to wait longer. The developers are extending the development timeline to polish the game prior to its full release.
Full retail version misses 2026 window as developers extend timeline
No Rest for the Wicked is a dark fantasy action game created by Ori Studio. The game is being developed as a complete retail release rather than an early access version. The 1.0 version represents the complete, polished experience the team aims to deliver.
The primary change involves the release window rather than core gameplay features. The game is no longer targeting a 2026 launch date. The specific new release date has not been disclosed in the available information.
We have been tracking No Rest for the Wicked closely — see our earlier coverage on Moon Studios CEO bans AI art. The studio has previously enforced a strict ban on artificial intelligence within the game's art production process. This approach underscores the team's commitment to conventional development practices.
Ori Studio confirmed the delay but did not provide a new launch window. Players must wait for further updates regarding the revised schedule. The 1.0 version remains the official release target, just outside the original 2026 timeframe.
