Steam Free Weekends are weekly free-to-play events that let you download full games for a limited time, typically from Friday to Sunday, or in this case, until Monday, January 26 at 7:00PM EST. This weekend's title is an excellent dark fantasy action RPG akin to Diablo that is absolutely worth checking out, featuring the game's four-player cooperative multiplayer mode.

No Rest For The Wicked is a highly regarded new action RPG from Moon Studios that features "soulslike combat" and now includes up to 4-player "seamless" co-op multiplayer. Developers tout No Rest For The Wicked's "weighty combat where every fight matters," and the game includes an array of difficulty options, a "vast pool of loot," a compelling narrative and campaign, all set on "a living island that evolves over time."

Players can also expect to find life-sim elements such as home-building and crafting systems that "tie directly into gameplay." Further, developers promise "No microtransactions," and state that "everything is earned through play."

No Rest For The Wicked Is Worth Your Time

Co-Op Is A Literal Game-Changer

No Rest For The Wicked is technically an Early Access game on Steam, but it is an ongoing project that is beloved by players. The game currently has 86% Very Positive reviews on Steam, and has become a sensation among fans since its launch in April last year.

No Rest For The Wicked Together (1) is the exciting and highly anticipated co-op update that players have been waiting on, and it's available on Steam for free to kick the new feature off the right way. After the free trial period ends on January 26 at 7:00PM, players will still be able to continue their co-op journey by purchasing the game.

However, it's typically recommended to purchase during the free-to-play event as games tend to be listed at an excellent discount during these limited times. Either way, if you want to see what No Rest For The Wicked is all about, you can dive in right now for free on Steam.
