PS5 & Xbox Release Date
No More Room in Hell 2 launched on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S on August 11, 2026 — day-and-date with the PC 1.0 release. There's no PS4 or Xbox One version, and no indication one is planned; the game targets current-gen hardware only.
The console port was handled through a publishing partnership with Green Man Gaming, announced in April 2026 alongside the second Steam free weekend. Torn Banner CEO Steve Piggott described it as bringing "the uncompromising, eight-player cooperative horror to an even bigger audience."
Console Price & Editions
- $29.99 / €29.99 standard price on both PlayStation Store and Microsoft Store — matching the PC base price.
- PS Plus members got a 20% launch discount ($23.99) for the first week of release (through August 17, 2026), per PlayStation Lifestyle's launch coverage. Check your store region for the current deal.
- PC's launch-week -35% discount ($19.49) was a Steam-specific promotion; console pricing used the PS Plus offer instead.
- No separate editions or DLC at launch — the full 1.0 game is one package, and cosmetics are earned in-game with Credits and Merits.
Console purchases are tied to your PSN or Xbox account. There's no cross-buy with PC, and (as of write time) no confirmed cross-progression, so progression is platform-bound — the crossplay guide covers what does and doesn't carry over.
PS5 & Xbox Performance
Torn Banner has not published per-console resolution/FPS targets at write time, so treat the details below as the official stated approach plus what we can verify:
- The official Road to 1.0: Optimization & Performance blog confirms Series S was used as the console baseline for optimization, with adjustments to "shadows, lighting, model detail, and distance rendering" to hit performance across "a wide suite of hardware."
- The PC minimum spec targets 1080p30 and the recommended spec 1080p60; console performance modes have not been officially confirmed — expect the standard current-gen pattern (a 60 FPS performance-style target, with exact resolutions unverified until Digital Foundry-style analysis or official specs land).
- The PS5 version carries a very strong early user rating on the PS Store (4.88/5 at launch week per PlayStation Lifestyle) — a decent signal, though small sample size.
As of writing, Torn Banner has not published exact resolution or FPS targets for PS5, Series X, or Series S. If 60 FPS on consoles matters to you, wait for post-launch performance analysis rather than assuming.
Console vs PC Differences
The console versions are the same game with the same content, crossplay, and progression systems — the differences are platform-level:
- Crossplay: PS5 and Xbox players share matchmaking with PC (Steam/Epic) — full details in the crossplay guide.
- Controller support: Full controller support is standard on console and was also confirmed for PC at 1.0. The game supports DualShock and DualSense inputs on Steam (per the store listing).
- Settings: Console versions don't expose the full PC graphics menu (DLSS, frame generation, super sampling). The 1.0 optimization pass (gore/VFX refactor, audio mixing, DLSS 4.5 on PC) benefits console through the shared "Series S baseline" work.
- Updates: Console patches go through platform certification, so PC tends to receive hotfixes first.
- Voice chat: The game uses proximity voice chat in-game; console players additionally use platform parties (PSN/Xbox party chat) when they want private voice.
Controller Support & Playing on Console
NMRIH2 plays fine on a controller — melee combat is rhythm-based, aiming assist exists on console, and the whole game shipped console-first for controls in 1.0. A few practical notes:
- R2/L2 melee: light and heavy attacks map to triggers; charging a heavy attack is a hold, not a separate button.
- Stick sensitivity matters: with zombie spawns and grapples, a higher look sensitivity helps you react to Runners; tune it in Options.
- Proximity chat is the default — use a headset. Console players often run platform party chat with their own squad, but for solo-queued crossplay matches, in-game proximity chat is how you communicate with strangers. The multiplayer guide explains the comms model.
Console Known Issues (1.0)
The official Armageddon update notes list one notable console-specific bug:
Per the official Armageddon 1.0 update notes: "In Solo Mode, Beginner supply drops do not appear to spawn on PS5 or XSX."
In other words, Solo Mode on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S is missing Beginner supply drops — annoying for new players using Solo Mode to learn the game, but it doesn't affect co-op matches. Expect it fixed in a follow-up patch; the dev team's standard support channels are the in-game bug reporter, Discord, and nmrih2.com/support.
