In R.E.P.O., staying alive is tough, but bringing your teammates back is even tougher if you don’t know how. Here’s a quick guide on reviving in the game.

How to Revive or “Res” a Teammate

  1. Find Their Body – If a teammate goes down, you’ll see their body on the ground.

  2. Interact to Start Revive – Walk up to them and press the revive button (depends on your platform).

  3. Hold the Button – Reviving takes time, so don’t let go too early.

  4. Watch Your Surroundings – You’re vulnerable while reviving, so make sure no enemies are around.

Revival Rules

  • You Can’t Revive if You’re Dead – Someone has to stay alive to bring others back.

  • Time Limit – Some game modes may have a time window for revives. If you wait too long, they’re gone for good.

  • Items or Perks May Help – Some upgrades or tools might speed up revives or make them safer.

Pro Tips for Reviving

Clear Enemies First – If you start reviving while enemies are still swarming, you’ll both just die again.
Use Cover – If possible, revive behind cover to avoid getting shot mid-revival.
Communicate – Let your teammate know you’re reviving so they don’t give up early.

Reviving is key to survival in R.E.P.O., so make sure you do it right!
