All R.E.P.O. items and upgrades

Money makes the world go round, and this truly is the case when it comes to surviving R.E.P.O. Gather coin and spend it like it’s your first paycheck—it’s time to become Inspector Gadget.

There’s strategy when it comes to winning R.E.P.O. as every item comes with a hefty price tag. If you want to survive for as long as possible, you best upgrade your stats, buy weapons, and choose the right gadget that suits your playstyle. Here are all items and what they do in R.E.P.O.

All R.E.P.O. items and what they do

Weapons and items can be carried in your inventory (three available slots). All items are purchased inside the Service Station (shop) between each level. You can use the accumulated total you gained from all previous levels you successfully extracted from. R.E.P.O. cruelly rounds down the total. So if you completed a level with $9.6K, you will enter the shop with $9K spending money.

Hold onto your money if you’re investing in a particular weapon or are accumulating upgrades and Energy Crystals. Any profit will carry over into the next round (so long as you survive the level to see the Service Station again). All items inside the store are randomized, meaning you cannot guarantee you will see the same item twice. There’s also a possibility of seeing duplicate items on the store’s shelves.

Let’s get into all R.E.P.O. items: their cost and function.

Throwables

Item Average cost Description

Grenade
$3K We all know what you’re getting with this one. Press “E” to pull the pin and toss the nade towards your target. This can destroy valuables so be sure to steer clear from your cart full of loot when the nade is in bound.

Don’t worry if you drop items in a round, they will respawn inside the truck in the next level. This means you should prioritize picking up Broken One heads instead of going back out to rescue Drones.

All R.E.P.O. upgrades and what they do

You can use an upgrade as the truck moves between the Service Station and the next location (level). Upgrades will spawn inside the truck, where you can pick them up with left-click and press “E” to use the upgrade, changing your character’s stats. You cannot share upgrades with teammates, and each one has only one use. If you forget to upgrade before the level starts, don’t worry, the boxes you purchased will spawn into the new level and sit in the truck, waiting for your safe return.
