No More Room in Hell 2 hits 1.0 and launches on consoles August 11

No More Room in Hell 2 is leaving early access and landing on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S on August 11. The 1.0 build arrives simultaneously across all platforms, with full cross-play supported from day one.

The update is substantial. Torn Banner Studios — the team behind Chivalry 2 — has squashed over 8,000 bugs for the 1.0 launch. New additions include a solo mode that strips out permadeath entirely, a training ground for players who want to learn the ropes before risking their character, and a wave-based Survival mode that got a preview during a free weekend earlier this year. Several maps have been expanded, and character customization goes noticeably deeper than anything in the early-access builds. The game launches at $30, with preorder and early launch pricing available for those who jump in quickly.

No More Room in Hell 2 is a first-person co-op zombie game for up to eight players on large, semi-open maps. The closest reference point is Left 4 Dead, but slower, harder, and far less reliant on gunplay — noise attracts zombies, so melee weapons are often the smarter call. The twist that sets it apart: if you die mid-run, you come back as a fast zombie hunting your former teammates. Permadeath is permanent within a run, which keeps the stakes genuinely high. The PC early-access period has been rocky enough to land the game at a "Mixed" rating on Steam, but much of that friction reads as typical growing pains for an ambitious early-access title still finding its footing on difficulty balance and polish.

With the 1.0 build addressing thousands of bugs and adding meaningful new content, the hope is that the console launch brings a cleaner, more complete experience that reflects what the game was always trying to be. Players who held off on early access now have a clear entry point.
