Saving in R.E.P.O. Explained (And Save Files)

Want to save progress in REPO? Good news: You can! Bad news: Only under very specific conditions…but this will change soon. Read more about the upcoming update that involves a new save menu and multiple save slots.

Save mechanism

• Complete the game run once, then exit from the menu and do not start another game immediately.
• If you do it correctly, your progress will be saved to continue from where you last left.
• If everyone dies, your save will be deleted – no second chance. The game will simply erase your existence as if you never existed.

Basically, if you complete a level and want to keep your progress, make sure to stop and exit before jumping into another task.

what does that mean

• Survival = Keep progress.
• Death = The game pretends you never existed.

Now, suppose you want to find your archive files—maybe for backup, transfer, or just stare at them nervously, hoping that they won't go away. This is where you need to look for.

How REPO archive works in different modes

• Your save files are available for both single-player and multiplayer – progress continues between the two.
• If your save is broken, you will have to start over from scratch (yes, it's as painful as you think).
• Steam Cloud Sync is unreliable – your archives may not be automatically transferred between computers.

That's why it's important to know where your archive files are stored - you can manually back up or move them to another computer instead of counting on the Steam cloud to really work.

Where to find your REPO archive file

1. Open File Explorer – the folder icon you will click when you get lost.
2. Go to C drive – where Windows stores all important content.
3. Navigate to the "Users" folder – Find the folder with your username.
4. Find the "LocalLow" folder – In your user folder, open "LocalLow" (this is real, not a joke).
5. Find the "semiwork" folder – This is the developer's folder.
6. Open the “Repo” folder – it’s almost done!
7. Go to the "saves" folder – and then you find your progress.

Final explanation

If you want to modify these files, please backup them first. Otherwise, a wrong move and you will have to start your REPO career from scratch. Let's be realistic - death in the game is enough punishment.
