R.E.P.O. Can You Play with Randoms or Join Random Lobbies

Want to experience the horror of "REPO" with strangers? Not yet possible!

Currently, "REPO" only supports direct invitation to friends for multiplayer games through the Steam friend system. The game does not support public matching, quick joining, or playing with random players.

The good news is that the matching system is under development! Click here to learn more.

REPO multiplayer mechanics

• Only play with players on the Steam friend list.
• No public lobby – If you don’t have friends with the game, you need to find players through Discord, forums, or other social channels.
• The host needs a stable network connection because REPO does not have a dedicated server. If the host side network is unstable, delays, disconnections or entire hall crashes may occur.

More information: Detailed explanation of the "REPO" matching system

If you have friends, here are the ways to invite them:

1. Launch REPO.
2. Select Create Game (because there is no "Join Random Player" button).
3. Confirm the network connection warning message (poor network connections can affect the gaming experience for all players).
4. Create the game and enter the lobby.
5. Click "Invite" to send your friends Steam invitation.
6. Wait for them to accept the invitation and join (or they don't join and you'll experience the game alone).

Once you enter the lobby, you can chat, change the character’s colors and prepare for the upcoming horror.

Will "REPO" launch a matching system?

The development team said that if random halls are allowed, they will face cheating problems. But they are indeed working on developing and running matching systems (i.e., open lobby). Click here to learn more about future updates.

Summarize

Currently, REPO only supports multiplayer games between friends, which means you need to organize your own team instead of directly joining the lobby of strangers. If you want to experience the game with random players through a matching system, that's not yet possible.
