Mar 21,25

R.E.P.O., a cooperative horror game brimming with dark humor, challenges players to extract valuable items from monster-infested locations. Launched into Early Access on February 26th, developers anticipate this phase lasting between six and twelve months.

This darkly comedic, cooperative horror game, R.E.P.O., is making waves on Steam, amassing overwhelmingly positive reviews. Boasting over 6,000 reviews, a remarkable 97% are positive, highlighting its immediate success.

Players rave about the game's unique blend of humor and engaging gameplay, particularly praising the creative implementation of its advanced physics engine, especially in the often-chaotic process of item extraction. Many comparisons are drawn to the popular Lethal Company, with R.E.P.O. lauded as an innovative evolution of similar concepts, rather than a simple imitation.

The game's popularity is also reflected in its impressive player numbers. Since launch, daily concurrent player records have been consistently broken. Yesterday's peak reached a staggering 61,791 concurrent players, exceeding even weekend numbers on Monday, demonstrating its viral appeal.
