No More Room in Hell 2 - Huge Update, Free Weekend & SaleApr 17, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsHello again to the NMRiH1 community! No More Room in Hell 2's REANIMATION update just released on April 15 - a release that compares in size with NMRiH2 Early Access launch back in October 2024. Since October, we've added Infection, weapon attachments, many new weapons and tools, many bug fixes and much more. The April Reanimation Update brings the sequel much closer in spirit to the original, with two new tighter, more claustrophobic city maps, a radial inventory, deeper combat, and much more. A Free Weekend runs from NOW until April 21 at 1pm ET, giving players the opportunity to try out the entire new update and also pick up the game for 20% off for a limited time. https://store.steampowered.com/app/292000/No_More_Room_in_Hell_2/ {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4458555/a6ddd05b327def845437e576613c7f9d1ded2369.jpg We see the Reanimation Update as practically a relaunch of the Early Access game - a big moment for NMRiH2 to show itself off as a far more content and feature-packed version of No More Room in Hell 2 in Early Access - with many bugs, performance hiccups and general "early access kinks" fixed at this point as well. Early Access will continue beyond April with more updates to come as we work towards its 1.0 version. Take a look back at the release roadmap up to now: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4458555/a9001709091140740627c40a896165ad487d37e7.jpg What's new since launch: TWO NEW URBAN MAPS https://youtu.be/ERrJHnvTG2c Lewiston {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4458555/20c04e3427951bb2c889976e5080220a9e643fb1.jpg Lewiston is an urban map that longtime followers of NMRIH2 would remember as a map named Waldoboro being worked on by the Lever team before they joined Torn Banner. Responders work to secure the safety of survivors across a ravaged city at golden sunset. Gather supplies if you must, but above all else - get out, alive. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4458555/0361e2409489545dc7111b15883e26b7111cdc65.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4458555/a4ae0670ea502d7637a4e87189c6cbfe770897dd.jpg Pottsville {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4458555/056f33dc532cba29dd3d2538d91211b39fa38a9d.jpg Pottsville, a brooding suburban small town full of claustrophobic encounters with the undead at dawn, is a new urban-set map for No More Room in Hell 2. Inspired by classic zombie movie settings and scenes, Pottsville is another city streets map with more claustrophobic encounters against the undead, as players creep down foggy alleyways and roam through neighbourhood houses and downtown buildings. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4458555/647f0c146b164fbc9d94137dc8a7b8afbae99f41.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4458555/a813ca2abfb521a6fc90ba50ec0315705a303908.jpg Combat 2.0 - A Melee Redesign {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4458555/ef0e92840bbec8373af0ec310bbd8acaae423184.gif With this update you can drag and aim your swings to cut off zombie limbs.

We, and many others, have fled here from the city, but the dead bastards have also followed us here. This caused the military to withhold rescue operations. It's been days now, and things are only getting worse. Last night a horde breached one of the cabin entrances. Many got bit and infected. A couple of us got together and hid in the basement of a nearby house. We're staying quiet until things calm down. The plan is to return to the cabin and re-establish contact with the national guard. Hopefully they'll organize one last transport for us.

View the announcement trailer, first revealed during Summer Game Fest 2024: No More Room in Hell 2 is an intense permadeath co-op journey into the eerie darkness of zombie-infested zones. As an emergency responder you must survive, scavenge, stockpile and fulfill your mission - then repeat, each time in an ever-changing experience. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4458555/66743c3662f809e00e923e19345e46a78e940eaa.png No More Room in Hell 2’s original developer, Lever Games, was acquired by Torn Banner, the studio behind Chivalry 1 & 2, and the original “Age of Chivalry” mod. Led by a core team of veterans from Torn Banner and Lever Games, the majority of the previous No More Room in Hell 2 team continues to work at the studio on the sequel. A commercial release in the same world as the 2011 award-winning Source mod, players start isolated in the dark, find their friends, and try to survive in a dynamic, endlessly replayable zombie apocalypse. With enemies and map locations inspired by classic horror cinema, No More Room in Hell 2 will instill terror into players while offering fresh, tactical gameplay, high-stakes permadeath, and intricate combat design that rewards teamwork and grit. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4458555/a1d53f8a445450609b2de8bdf0ca54a6b265be21.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4458555/5accdac9b4cc191b1589e10582ebe034c45210b6.png Find your way to your teammates with proximity voice chat and grow together in power. Each match, you’ll go from spawning in the darkness with a flashlight, to forming a fully stocked 8-player co-op squad with assault rifles and explosives. An ever-present threat remains: if a responder dies, all of their progress is lost. “No More Room in Hell 2 continues the dark, grounded aesthetic and intense action horror approach of the original game while expanding its vision dramatically,” said Steve Piggott, CEO and creative director at Torn Banner Studios. “We’re excited to be the new shepherds of a franchise we adored as fans and we’re thrilled to take up the mission of capturing the iconic horror of classic zombie cinema. We want to blow people away with our first co-op game, pushing Torn Banner’s skill in multiplayer action to a whole new level.” Powered by Unreal Engine 5, No More Room in Hell 2 is a co-op game with consequences coming to early access on PC via Steam and Epic Games Store this Halloween. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4458555/fec9d4c303c9f162a6b2bfbc9b193d7717375340.png We look forward to sharing more with our community over the next month with more details coming during the PC Gaming Show on June 9th, a Torn Banner Studios Twitch livestream on June 11th, plus multiple blogs exploring details of No More Room in Hell 2.

Our plan is to launch the game next Halloween in Early Access as a Beta. That means it will launch with some limited content but what we do launch with we plan to have decently polished and a good quality experience. We plan on being in Beta/Early Access for one year and with your support from buying the game we will be able to afford to hire more staff to work on the game full-time (we only have 2 full-time staff at the moment!) and it will enable us to continue to develop the game, flesh out the mechanics more, add new features and extra content like tons of new weapons, maps, and new game modes! We are a small team and we have a lot to do still but we know that you are a dedicated, supporting and understanding community and we hope that you will be with us on this journey to delivering the best possible co-op zombie game. As always you can join us on our Discord Channel and hit me up if you have any questions or whatever. Thank you so much for sticking with us all this time and we hope you'll play with us next Halloween!NMRiH Anniversary Update (1.12) ReleasedOct 31, 2021 - Community AnnouncementsAn update to No More Room in Hell has been released. The update will be applied automatically when you restart No More Room in Hell. The major changes include: New Maps: Anxiety (by Porkchops4lunch) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4458555/4fc76112f1b94e6ecad55d827b36fc49cbc525ed.jpg The rails can take us no further. There seems to be a train crash up ahead, but at least we managed to escape the dead labs. With that being said, the news isn't all bad. The map shows another train tunnel that leads straight to St. Sebastian hospital - army mentioned this location over the radio several times - something about evacuation plans. There must be some maintenance tunnels connecting the different subway routes. Just hope there's someone left up there to help us... Rockpit (by Sirdoggy) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4458555/e036c411062c3e681141ef2a0bb4b15ff9b75413.jpg All hell broke loose in the facility. Many of us thought that seeking shelter in the tunnels was a good idea... After some time, we're already low on supplies and boxed in by the undead. We have to get to the surface. Yesterday we could hear constant gunfire and explosions from the surface, but it suddenly went quiet. Maybe the situation up there is under control... Drugstore (by Acrilyk) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4458555/3b74bca710dcdc2b66028f26ddd2bce23ac2481a.jpg While looting the Everett Pharmacy Drugstore in Macon, some survivors found a working military radio. It would seem that the army tried to establish a safezone inside the drugstore, but got overrun. Abandoned by the National Guard, the survivors decide to hole up in the drugstore and make a final stand with the supplies the military left behind. Upon using the radio, they are told help is on the way, but they have countless undead to slaughter in the meantime...
