First 2025 Update for No More Room in Hell 2: Firefighter Zombies and More
Torn Banner Studios has kicked off 2025 with the release of the 0.2.4 update for No More Room in Hell 2, the co-op horror shooter game that entered Early Access in October 2024. This first major update of the year introduces new gameplay features, reworks, and bug fixes to enhance the survival horror experience.
Features in the 0.2.4 Update
Firefighter Zombies
The update introduces a new zombie type: the Firefighter Zombie, distinguished by its protective firefighter uniform and oxygen tanks.
Oxygen Tanks: These tanks explode when damaged, creating an opportunity for players to strategically knock down nearby zombies. While the explosion won't harm players, it provides a tactical edge against hordes.
Return of Caliber Ammunition
Fan-favorite caliber ammunition makes its return, adding a layer of strategy to gameplay:
Diverse Ammunition Types: Players must now decide carefully which types of ammo to carry, as inventory space is limited.
Increased Tactical Depth: This change encourages resource management and thoughtful preparation for survival scenarios.
Reworked Runner Zombies
The Runner Zombies have been overhauled to become more unpredictable in their attacks, making them a greater threat during encounters. However:
Reduced Spawn Rates: To balance the difficulty, Runner Zombies will now appear less frequently, aligning with community feedback.
New Responder Skills
Several Responder skills have been introduced, offering players new ways to enhance their survivability:
Immunity: Reduces the chance of infection by 50%.
Outdoor Champion: Mitigates damage from fire, gas, water, and electricity by 30%.
Builder: Increases stack sizes for barricade boards and batteries.
Quality-of-Life Improvements and Bug Fixes
The development team has focused heavily on addressing community feedback and fixing bugs:
Improved Climbing Skills: Enhanced accuracy for smoother traversal.
Zombie Visual Adjustments: Improved the appearance and animation of zombies.
Exploit Fixes: Addressed issues like infinite ammo exploits.
General Stability: Improved overall game performance and stability.
