No Rest for the Wicked is expected to focus on releasing for PlayStation 5 first, as current market conditions favor this console. Moon Studios' CEO indicated that Xbox may be a later release due to lower sales figures compared to PS5 and Switch 2. Currently, the PS5 has sold about 80 million units, while Xbox Series X/S sales are estimated to be less than half that number. The studio aims to support all platforms but will prioritize based on available resources and console sales.
"Btw, given current market conditions, we might only release on PS5 and potentially Switch 2 for the time being—we'll have to discuss things with MS to see what makes sense for Xbox," Moon CEO Thomas Mahler said.
"There's nothing to officially confirm yet. We want to support consoles and just looking at the numbers, PS5 makes the most sense at the moment. Ultimately we'll ship on all platforms, but likely not at the same time!"
With PS5 currently sitting at around 80 million consoles sold, the Xbox Series X/S, whose hardware revenue within Microsoft falls precipitously every year, is estimated to have sold less than half that.
Microsoft published a developer blog post last fall asking studios for feedback. "If you are making video games, we're interested in hearing from you. If you aren't on Xbox, we'd love to know why."
