No More Room in Hell 2 will be available on Steam Early Access and EGS, October 31 2022!

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[www.discord.gg] 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!
