Dive into the thrilling world of *R.E.P.O.*, the cooperative horror game that challenges you and up to five friends to navigate through various maps, collect valuables, and safely extract them. But the last thing you want is to lose all your hard work, so let's dive into the crucial details of saving your game in *R.E.P.O.*
How to Save Your Game in R.E.P.O.
It's every gamer's nightmare to boot up their favorite game, only to find their progress unsaved. This can be especially frustrating with new titles like *R.E.P.O.*, where the mechanics might not be immediately clear. Unlike some games, *R.E.P.O.* doesn't offer a manual save option, and it's vital to understand its autosave system to avoid losing your progress.
In *R.E.P.O.*, the golden rule is simple: you must complete the level you're on for the game to autosave. If you quit during a retrieval mission or die (sending you to the Disposal Arena), your progress is lost, and you'll have to start that level from scratch. Yes, that's right—dying in *R.E.P.O.* results in your save file being deleted, and exiting mid-level means returning to the start of that level.
To successfully save your game, you need to reach the end of a level. Once you've gathered all the valuables, head to the Extraction Point, board the truck, and signal your AI boss, the Taxman, by holding the message button above your head. This action cues the transition to the Service Station, where you can shop or prepare for the next level. Use the same button to proceed onward.

After leaving the Service Station, you'll arrive at your next location. It's safe to exit to the main menu or quit the game at this point. When you or your host (if another player started the game) next opens *R.E.P.O.*, you can resume your adventure seamlessly. Remember, if you're playing with others, the host is responsible for exiting at the right time to ensure the game saves correctly. Once the host exits, all players will be logged out.
