Reviving Teammates in R.E.P.O.: A Guide

Playing games with friends can elevate the gaming experience to new heights. However, in R.E.P.O., everyone might find themselves in the hot seat at some point due to the game's challenging monsters. Here's how you can bring your fallen teammates back to life in R.E.P.O..

What To Do If a Teammate Dies in R.E.P.O.

When you start a round in R.E.P.O., your health is at 100. Damage can come from various sources, including monsters or even your own Human Grenades. To recover, you can use Health Packs found at the Service Station. Additionally, teammates can share health by interacting with each other's health bars—a unique feature that adds a layer of teamwork to the game.

Despite these options, the monsters in R.E.P.O. can sometimes overpower your squad. If a teammate falls, you have two options: wait for the round to end or take immediate action. When a teammate dies, their head drops to the ground. You'll need to pick it up, so keep an eye on where they fall or check the map for the head's location, marked by a small icon matching their character color.

Where To Revive Teammates in R.E.P.O.

Once you have the head, head to the extraction point. Place the head there, and if you've met the round's loot requirement (visible at the top right of your screen), your teammate will respawn with 1 HP. They can then enter the truck to gain some additional health, ensuring they're not a burden to the squad. After that, it's back to business as usual.

If retrieving the head isn't possible, there's another way to revive your teammates: start a new round. Similar to Call of Duty Zombies, this round-based approach allows deceased players to return at the beginning of a new round. This method might leave you at a disadvantage for the remainder of the current round, but it can be beneficial, especially for newer players who can learn from watching more experienced teammates.
