Despite having ideas for a third Ori game, Moon Studios prioritizes their new action RPG, set for early access release next week.

  • The studio believes the Ori series' narrative is complete, but doesn't rule out a future Ori 3 if more story needs to be told.
  • CEO Thomas Mahler has a title and ideas for Ori 3, indicating potential for the series' continuation.
  • 'No Rest for the Wicked' marks a departure in genre and is not published by Xbox, unlike the Ori games.
  • Internal issues at Moon Studios, including accusations of a 'sexist' work environment, have been reported in the past.
