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

by Violet May 03,2025

*R.E.P.O.* is a thrilling co-operative horror game where the objective is simple yet challenging: retrieve valuable items and survive the onslaught of monsters that spawn randomly throughout each location. Successfully escaping with your loot not only feels rewarding but also allows you to earn cash, which you can use to stock up on essential survival gear. The menacing AI Taxman ensures that every successful extraction is a cause for celebration, as it gives you the chance to spend your hard-earned money at the Service Station.

As you delve deeper into *R.E.P.O.*, mastering the extraction process becomes second nature. What might initially feel overwhelming soon transforms into a routine as you tackle more levels and face down increasingly terrifying monsters.

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

In your initial foray into *R.E.P.O.*, you'll encounter a single Extraction Point. However, as you advance to new locations, the number of Extraction Points can increase, with a maximum of four. Keep an eye on the red number in the right-hand corner of your screen; it indicates how many drop-offs you need to complete and how many you've already accomplished.

At the start of each level, the first Extraction Point is conveniently located near your R.E.P.O. truck—a constant you can rely on. After your first successful drop-off, the game's complexity ramps up. You'll need to navigate the level without knowing the Taxman's demands or the locations of subsequent drop-off points. This is where your in-game map, accessible by pressing "Tab" on your keyboard, becomes invaluable. It helps you plan your routes and, if playing with others, allows your team to explore different sections of the map simultaneously.

The location of the next Extraction Point only becomes clear once you reach its vicinity—either by visual cues or auditory signals. Once found, hit the big red button to discover your fate. If you've gathered enough items, place your C.A.R.T. within the designated grey area to ensure none of your valuables are destroyed.

After completing an extraction, you'll either move on to the next point by repeating the process or make your way back to the truck, depending on the number of points you need to find. Remember, after the final extraction, you don't need to take the C.A.R.T. back to the truck; a new one will be waiting for you in the next location or level.

Now that you're well-versed in the art of extraction in *R.E.P.O.*, be sure to explore our other guides for more tips and strategies to enhance your gameplay experience.
