Evaluation
No More Room in Hell released in October 2013 as a free-to-play cooperative zombie survival game and has been receiving updates ever since. The developer, Lever Games, was acquired by Torn Banner Studios (the studio behind Chivalry 1 & 2) in mid-2024, an acquisition that continued rather than disrupted franchise development.
The original game has maintained a steady pattern of substantial updates over the years. Major content releases include Update 1.13 on October 31, 2022 (two new maps and a mutator system), and Update 1.14 on October 20, 2024 (a new objective map, Shoreline). Feature-level patches followed in March and April 2025. The historical cadence between major updates has been roughly 1–2 years, meaning the window for the next major release for the original game extends into late 2025 or 2026.
The most recent developer communication on this game's Steam page was posted on August 24, 2026, announcing that the sequel, No More Room in Hell 2, has exited Early Access and reached its 1.0 release. While this post is primarily about the sequel, it confirms the team remains engaged and communicating with the NMRiH community as recently as four days before today's assessment date. Notably, the developer also released a blog post on the same date outlining their immediate plans for NMRiH 2, signaling continued investment in the franchise overall.
No end-of-support statement has been made for the original game, and there is no "final update" announcement. The sole DLC — the Original Soundtrack Volume 1 (released October 2014) — is fully available. The store description does not indicate a complete or definitive edition. The game remains free to play with no microtransactions.

About this game
"When there's no more room in hell, the dead will walk the earth."
A tribute to the highly acclaimed film series in which the above quote originated from, No More Room in Hell (PC Gamer's Mod of the Year 2011, ModDB's Editor Choice Multiplayer Mod of the Year 2011), is a co-operative realistic first person survival horror modification for the Source Engine. Taking inspiration from George Romero's "Of the Dead" series, the mod is set during a time in which the world is on the verge of collapsing into chaos from a disease whose origin is unknown. Many experts and organizations have their theories and ideas on how such a disease emerged and started to systematically destroy our very way of life, but one fact is clear to all. Whoever perishes from the disease gets up and kills, and the people they killed get up and kill.
The chances of you surviving this all out war of society and the undead are slim to none. Already, there are millions of the walking dead shambling about, searching for food to eat. There's no known cure. One bite can possibly end it all for you. However, you aren't alone in this nightmare. There are still a handful of uninfected survivors left in this god forsaken hellhole, and with co-operation and teamwork, you may live long enough to fight your way to salvation.

Features:
- Teamwork: Co-operative play with up to eight players.
- Voice and Text Communications Limited by Distance: The further you're away the harder it is for other players to hear you. Keep those walkie talkies close!

- Survival Mode: Defend and maintain your shelter against the undead in the hopes of getting extracted to a safe area.
- A Realistic Approach: In short, no crosshairs with limited "only when you want it" HUD. In addition, ammo and weapons are extremely scarce. With that in mind, aim down your sights and shoot for the head!
- Multitude of Different Opponents: Ranging from the iconic "walking zombie" to the more contemporary "runners", NMRiH will keep you on your toes with a mix of dangerous foes to face down. However, the most dangerous enemy may not always be the walking dead...
- Infection: One bite may be what it takes to bring you down. If infected, you must decide if you want to alert your team to rid you of your burden, or to keep quiet in the hopes of finding a cure...

- No ads (on official and community official servers, user-hosted servers may vary)
- No pay to win items or microtransactions
- 100% Free (unless you buy the soundtrack DLC <3)
