R.E.P.O Console Release Announced

*R.E.P.O.*, the cooperative horror game that launched in February, has captured the attention of gamers, boasting over 200,000 players on PC. However, fans eager to experience *R.E.P.O.* on consoles may be disappointed to learn that there are currently no plans for a console release. The game's developer, semiwork, has remained silent on the topic of a console version, focusing instead on refining the game's multiplayer experience on PC.

The primary challenge semiwork faces is enhancing the multiplayer mechanics of *R.E.P.O.* while preventing it from becoming a breeding ground for cheats. As the developer explained to PCGamer, "The main issue with matchmaking lobbies is hackers. But the issue with an anti-cheat system is that you’re ruining the experience for everyone who has made mods, because mods don’t work with an anti-cheat system. And we don’t want that." This dilemma must be resolved before any consideration of a console port can be entertained.

While some PC-exclusive games like *Mouthwashing* have successfully transitioned to consoles, it's worth noting that *Mouthwashing* is a single-player game, which simplifies the porting process. Other similar titles such as *Lethal Company* and *Content Warning*, which also involve sneaking past monsters, have remained PC-only. Last year, the developers of *Content Warning* mentioned considering a console release but cited technical difficulties as a barrier. Since then, there has been no further update on a potential console version.

In summary, *R.E.P.O.*'s developer has not shown any interest in bringing the game to consoles and is instead concentrating on improving the multiplayer aspects of the PC version. For those interested in exploring more about *R.E.P.O.*, check out our guide on how to access the Secret Shop within the game.
