REPO’s First Update Promises Exciting Enhancements
In a recent announcement, the development team behind REPO unveiled a glimpse of the game’s first update since its early access debut in February. This update is generating buzz among players, particularly for its much-anticipated feature aimed at curbing the notorious antics of a certain duck that has been a source of frustration for many teams.
While a specific release date remains under wraps, the update is set to introduce several noteworthy enhancements. Players can look forward to:
- A new map that promises to expand the game’s eerie yet entertaining landscape.
- Facial expressions for characters, adding a layer of personality to the gameplay.
- Quality of life updates designed to enhance the overall user experience.
- The highly sought-after duck bucket, which aims to mitigate the chaos caused by the mischievous duck.
In response to player feedback gathered earlier this month, the developers are also working on a public lobby feature. Currently, players can only join games with friends who own the title, limiting solo gamers’ options. The team expressed their commitment to this feature, stating, “As an overwhelming majority seems fine with matchmaking where you can either host public or private, together with a kick button, that’s what we’ll be looking into.” They acknowledged that implementing a kick button is more complex than it appears, involving intricate server coding.
Despite the wait for public lobbies, the excitement surrounding REPO’s first update is palpable. The game has seen a remarkable surge in popularity, boasting a 96% positive rating on Steam since its early access launch. For fans of titles like Lethal Company or Among Us, REPO offers a unique blend of humor and horror that is hard to resist. With its quirky physics and amusing robot avatars, it has quickly become a favorite among players, even as they navigate the challenges posed by that pesky duck.
