Repo

R.E.P.O. is an online cooperative horror game that blends item retrieval with survival under pressure. Players take on the role of robotic agents tasked with entering abandoned, haunted environments to collect and extract valuable objects. Up to six players can join each session, navigating dark, hostile areas using a physics-based grab tool to lift, carry, and secure items. The game uses proximity voice chat, encouraging players to communicate clearly and stay close, while also forcing them to manage noise levels around dangerous enemies.
Physics-Based Gameplay and Team Strategy
Each mission in Repo requires players to move items of various sizes and fragility through tight, unpredictable spaces. Objects respond to realistic physics, meaning balance, momentum, and grip all matter. Transporting a heavy object like a piano requires coordination between players, while smaller items still need care to avoid damage. All of this happens while creatures roam the map, reacting to sound and movement. Staying quiet, choosing the safest route, and working together is essential. Poor teamwork or careless handling can quickly result in mission failure.
Upgrades, Risk, and Progression
Between missions, players can spend surplus earnings to enhance their robotic frames with new tools, increased strength, or defensive upgrades. These enhancements provide more options for handling larger cargo or dealing with enemy encounters. Some upgrades may increase movement speed, improve object stability, or offer limited protection against attacks. Repo builds tension through unpredictable AI behavior, weight-based movement, and the constant risk of losing valuable cargo. It rewards careful planning, communication, and smart use of equipment in a system that mixes horror with tactical object handling.
