The cooperative horror game *R.E.P.O.* offers an engaging, physics-based retrieval experience for up to six players. Your mission is to explore various maps, gather valuables, and safely extract them. To ensure your efforts are preserved, understanding how to save your game in *R.E.P.O.* is crucial.
How To Save Your Game in R.E.P.O.
One of the most frustrating experiences for gamers is discovering that their latest progress hasn't been saved. This issue is particularly common with new titles like *R.E.P.O.*, where autosave features might not be as straightforward, and manual save options are absent. Missing the tutorial or unclear instructions can lead to lost progress, which can be disheartening.
In *R.E.P.O.*, remember that you must complete the level you're on for the game to autosave. There's no manual save feature; if you quit mid-mission or die, which sends you to the Disposal Arena, your progress is lost, and you'll have to restart the level. Upon death, your save file is deleted, and exiting during a mission means you'll need to start that level over from the beginning.
To save your game, you need to successfully finish a level by delivering your valuables to the Extraction Point. Then, find your way to the truck and hold the message button above your head to signal the Taxman, your AI boss, that it's time to head to the Service Station. At the Service Station, you can shop for necessary items. Once ready, use the same button to proceed to your next level.

After leaving the Service Station, you'll reach your next location, and this is the safe point to exit to the main menu or quit the game. When you or the host (in multiplayer scenarios) relaunch *R.E.P.O.*, you can resume from where you left off. It's important for the host to exit the game at the correct time to ensure proper saving, as other players will be disconnected once the host quits.
