Horror co-op game REPO is the latest surprise hit to take Steam by storm, leaving its small team scrambling to keep up with player interest. The studio behind REPO, Semiwork, is working on the game’s first update, and has just shared more details on what the major update will add–including a much-requested matchmaking system.
“The first update will include the long-awaited matchmaking, with server password, region picker, server list, and kick option,” developer Pontus said in a Q&A video shared by Semiwork, as picked up by GamesRadar. The upcoming update will also add a new level, which will come with a handful of new valuables, some with surprising gimmicks and effects triggered when players pick them up. The update will also bring new weapons, along with a new mechanic called Overcharge designed for a “more interesting late-game experience.”
Also coming in the first update are expressions: essentially emotes that players can use to better communicate with each other in the co-op game. The Q&A video shows off a few including angry, sad, unimpressed, and “very much unimpressed”–though its not clear if those are the exact expressions arriving with the first patch.
