Exploring the depths of *R.E.P.O.* can lead to uncovering some of its best-kept secrets, and one of the most exciting finds is the secret shop. This hidden gem is definitely worth seeking out during your breaks between loot runs. Let's delve into how you can access the secret shop in *R.E.P.O.* and what treasures await you inside.
The secret shop in *R.E.P.O.* is tucked away within the Service Station, a location you can only access between your runs. The earliest opportunity to visit the Service Station comes after successfully completing level 1 and meeting your quota. Once you've achieved this, you're free to explore the Service Station and its hidden offerings.
To find the entrance to the secret shop, you need to look up at the ceiling inside the Service Station. Keep an eye out for a loose ceiling tile, which can be more easily spotted by using a grenade or any other explosive to highlight it. The entrance is typically found near the healing items within the Service Station.
Once you've located the entrance, there are several methods to access the shop. If you're playing in multiplayer mode, you can have a teammate boost you up to reach the ceiling tile. Alternatively, if you've acquired the double jump upgrade or the Feather Drone, these can also help you get inside. Another option is to shoot the tile with a gun to reveal the entrance.
The inventory at the secret shop varies from run to run, but the allure lies in its discounted prices, making it a more economical choice than the regular Service Station. You might also stumble upon exclusive items like the Human Grenade and Duct Tape Grenade, which are not commonly found in the standard shop.
That's your guide to accessing the secret shop in *R.E.P.O.*. For more tips and detailed information on the game, including strategies to tackle all monsters and a comprehensive list of items, be sure to check out The Escapist.
