No Rest for the Wicked isn't including rideable horses since "clever level design is a higher priority than selling mounts"

Moon Studios – the developer behind beloved Metroidvania games Ori and the Blind Forest and Will of the Wisps – is gearing up to launch its next game, action-RPG No Rest for the Wicked, into early access. Ahead of that, its director has clarified that there’ll be no microtransactions included in the upcoming title at all, and definitely no expensive skins to buy for horses.

No Rest for the Wicked is set to launch on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X in the future, but its early access release will only be available via Steam. You’ll be able to dive in on Steam from April 18.

    Shit, I’ve never bought a game early access before, but I think I’ll happily pay to be a beta tester to support these devs and this project.

    When capitalism goes so far we start selling games by what they don’t contain…

    I mean sounds fun don’t get me wrong but one of those reverse good news feelings.

    Crazy to think there’s any money left in the wallets of people who would want this. I wouldn’t pay $65 for a literal horse’s leather pelt.
