Discovering the hidden gems in *R.E.P.O.* can add a thrilling layer to your gaming experience, especially when you're not out on your usual loot runs. One such gem is the secret shop, and here's your guide to uncovering it.
Getting Into the Secret Shop in R.E.P.O.
The secret shop in *R.E.P.O.* is tucked away inside the Service Station, accessible only between your runs. The earliest opportunity to explore it comes right after completing level 1 and meeting your quota, granting you access to the Service Station.
Once inside the Service Station, direct your gaze upward to the ceiling. You're on the hunt for a loose ceiling tile, which you can spot more easily by tossing a grenade or another explosive. Typically, this entrance is positioned near the healing items.
Accessing the shop involves a bit of creativity. In multiplayer mode, a teammate can boost you to reach the ceiling tile. Alternatively, if you've acquired the double jump upgrade or have a Feather Drone at your disposal, use these to ascend. Shooting the tile with a gun is another method to expose the entrance.
What to Buy in the Secret Shop
The secret shop's inventory refreshes with each run, and one of its biggest draws is the discounted prices on items, making it a more cost-effective place to stock up compared to the regular Service Station. Keep an eye out for unique items like the Human Grenade and Duct Tape Grenade, which are exclusive to this secret location.
And there you have it—a complete guide to accessing and making the most out of the secret shop in *R.E.P.O.*. For more in-depth strategies, monster handling tips, and a comprehensive item list, be sure to check out The Escapist.
