Extracting Items in R.E.P.O.: A Guide

Author : Ava Update : May 14,2025

Dive into the gripping world of *R.E.P.O.*, a cooperative horror game where your primary mission is to retrieve high-value items while surviving encounters with terrifying monsters that spawn unpredictably across various locations. Successfully escaping with your loot not only boosts your adrenaline but also rewards you handsomely, allowing you to invest in essential survival gear with your earned cash.

To secure your earnings, you must navigate to the Extraction Point where your C.A.R.T. of treasures is evaluated, and the AI Taxman decides your fate, hopefully sending you to the Service Station with a hefty sum to spend.

As you delve deeper into *R.E.P.O.*, mastering the extraction process becomes almost instinctive. What starts as a challenging task soon transforms into a routine as you progress through levels and overcome more formidable creatures.

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

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

At the outset of each level, the first Extraction Point is conveniently located near your R.E.P.O. truck—a constant you can rely on for your initial haul. Beyond that, navigating becomes more complex.

After your first successful drop-off, continue exploring the level as usual, but you'll be in the dark about the Taxman's demands and the subsequent drop-off locations. This is when your in-game map becomes invaluable. By hitting the "Tab" key, you can view unexplored areas, helping you strategize your route. If playing with others, this feature enables your team to cover more ground simultaneously.

You'll only discover the next Extraction Point once you're in its vicinity, either by visual cues or distinctive sounds. Upon locating it, press the prominent red button to ascertain if you've gathered enough valuables. If you meet the quota, position your C.A.R.T. within the designated grey area to avoid any damage to your items.

After completing this step, depending on the total number of Extraction Points, you'll either move on to the next one by repeating the process or strive to return to your truck unscathed. Remember, after the final Extraction Point is cleared and your valuables counted, you don't need to take the C.A.R.T. back to the truck—a new one will always be available at the next location or level.
