In *R.E.P.O.*, uncovering secrets adds an extra layer of excitement to your loot runs, and the secret shop is one treasure you won't want to miss. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to access and make the most of this hidden gem.
Getting Into the Secret Shop in R.E.P.O.
The secret shop is nestled within the Service Station, accessible only between your runs. You can reach it earliest by completing level 1 and meeting your quota, which then allows you to visit the Service Station.
Once inside the Service Station, look towards the ceiling to spot the entrance to the secret shop. You'll be looking for a loose ceiling tile, which you can easily identify by throwing a grenade or another explosive near the healing items area.
To actually get up to the secret shop, you have several options. If you're playing multiplayer, have a teammate lift you up to reach the ceiling tile. Alternatively, using the double jump upgrade or the Feather Drone can get you inside. If you have a gun, simply shooting the tile can also expose the entrance.
What to Buy in the Secret Shop
The inventory in the secret shop rotates between runs, but the allure lies in the discounted prices, making it a more cost-effective place to stock up compared to the regular Service Station. Additionally, there's a chance to find exclusive items like the Human Grenade and Duct Tape Grenade, which aren't typically available in the standard shop.
That's your complete guide to accessing the secret shop in *R.E.P.O.*. For more tips and detailed information on dealing with monsters and a comprehensive list of items, be sure to check out The Escapist.
