"Guide to Extracting Items in R.E.P.O. Game"

by Ethan Apr 03,2025

*R.E.P.O.* is a thrilling cooperative horror game where your primary mission is to retrieve valuable items while surviving relentless monster attacks. These creatures spawn unpredictably, making each retrieval a high-stakes endeavor. If you manage to escape with your loot, you're rewarded handsomely, allowing you to purchase survival gear with your earnings. The menacing AI Taxman oversees your efforts, adding another layer of tension to the game.

Successfully extracting items involves reaching an Extraction Point, where your C.A.R.T of treasures is assessed, and you're permitted to proceed to the Service Station. Here, you can spend your hard-earned cash on essential upgrades.

As you advance through *R.E.P.O.*, the extraction process becomes more manageable. What initially feels overwhelming soon turns into a familiar routine as you tackle more levels and confront more monsters.

How to Extract in R.E.P.O.

In your initial foray into *R.E.P.O.*, you'll encounter just one Extraction Point. As you progress to new locations, this number can increase, with a maximum of four points. You can monitor your extraction goals by checking the red number in the right-hand corner of your screen, which also indicates completed drop-offs.

At the start of each level, the Extraction Point is conveniently located near your R.E.P.O. truck, ensuring you know where to return your first haul. Subsequent points, however, can be challenging to find.

After your first drop-off, continue navigating the level as usual. The Taxman's demands and the next Extraction Point's location remain unknown until you're in the vicinity. Here, your in-game map becomes crucial. By pressing "Tab," you can view unexplored areas, aiding in route planning and allowing your team to cover more ground efficiently.

Upon reaching the next Extraction Point, its presence is revealed either visually or through sound cues. Once located, press the large red button to assess your haul. If you've collected enough, place your C.A.R.T within the designated grey area to ensure none of your items are destroyed.

After completing an extraction, depending on the number of points still to find, you'll either move on to the next one by repeating the steps or attempt to return to the truck safely. Remember, after the final Extraction Point, you don't need to bring the C.A.R.T back to the truck; a new one will be available at the next location or level.
