No Rest for the Wicked delayed into 2027, was supposed to hit a month before GTA 6

Moon Studios just pushed No Rest for the Wicked's 1.0 launch into 2027. It was originally slated for about a month before GTA 6 drops in November, which already felt like a bold move. Now it's gone.

The official reason is performance, tightening the class system, and general polish. They didn't mention GTA 6 at all. Which is either honest or they don't want to admit the obvious. November is a no fly zone for anything that wants attention. Even a different genre like an action RPG is going to get buried when everyone is either playing GTA 6 or watching clips of it.

I was mildly curious about No Rest for the Wicked, but by 2027 I'll be deep in Leonida and probably won't care. The class system comment is a little concerning though. If they're still tightening core systems this late, that's not a small delay. But whatever, another one clears the runway. Fine by me.

Can't blame them. Though I kinda want one brave studio to launch that November anyway, just so we can measure the actual blast radius.

ngl i'd watch that too lol. some poor indie launches nov 19th and just gets vaporized

honestly the delays are doing my wallet a favor. everything scary is running away from gta and i can't even afford the ones that stay
