Best R.E.P.O. Mods So Far

Navigating R.E.P.O. can be challenging, especially with the game's proximity chat feature in play. The "Better Map" mod addresses this by clearly showing the positions of your teammates and the spawn locations of monsters. Each monster type is represented by a distinct shape, making it easy to steer clear of danger zones. Remember, in R.E.P.O., red means danger!
More Shop Items

The frustration of not finding the right weapon or upgrade at the Service Station is a common pain point. The "More Shop Items" mod solves this by increasing the variety and quantity of items available, boosting your chances of getting exactly what you need without waiting for the next level.
More Stamina

Stamina is crucial in R.E.P.O., whether you're solo or with a team. The "More Stamina" mod doesn't add to your stamina pool but rather reduces the rate at which it depletes. This tweak can be a lifesaver, allowing you to escape from threats like Trudges and Bangers more effectively.
Show Enemy Damage

With 19 different monsters, keeping track of their health levels can be daunting. The "Show Enemy Damage" mod displays real-time damage indicators, helping you decide whether to engage or evade. A red bar or numerical countdown shows the monster's health deterioration, making your tactical decisions more informed.
Team Upgrades

As you progress in R.E.P.O., upgrades become increasingly expensive. The "Team Upgrades" mod allows any purchased upgrade to be shared across all team members. This cooperative feature saves money and ensures everyone benefits from the upgrades, no matter who activates them.
Valuable Shrinking

Transporting high-value items can be risky, especially without an Indestructible Drone. The "Valuable Shrinking" mod allows you to shrink large items to fit into your cart, making transportation safer and more manageable, even over long distances.
Character Customization

Personalizing your R.E.P.O. robot adds a fun layer to the game. The "Character Customization" mod lets you dress up your character from head to toe, with options inspired by other popular games like Pokémon and Mario, enhancing the visual appeal of your team.
Improved Truck Healing

Returning to the truck after a mission is a moment of relief in R.E.P.O., especially with the healing it provides. The "Improved Truck Healing" mod boosts the healing effect up to 50 HP, potentially saving you from needing to purchase additional health kits at the Service Station.
More Of Everything
