Gameplay

[edit]

R.E.P.O. gameplay is similar to Lethal Company.[1] It has been released and can be accessed via Steam. The game can host up to six players, and tasks them with finding valuable items and objects. The players must handle the objects carefully and avoid breaking them, while bringing the objects to extraction points to receive in-game money.[2] R.E.P.O. has received over 5,000 positive reviews on Steam.[3][4]

Reception

[edit]

Shaun Cichacki of Vice said "R.E.P.O. is 6-player chaos in the greatest way possible, and "I can't get enough".[5]

Elie Gould of PC Gamer said "R.E.P.O. is a fantastic co-op horror game that can hold its own against big shots like Lethal Company".[6]

As of March 11, 2025, R.E.P.O. has 145,000 active players on Steam.[7]
