Many PC players are reporting that R.E.P.O. gets stuck on the loading screen, preventing them from experiencing the game. While developer semiwork hasn't yet released a patch, several troubleshooting steps can help.

Simple Fixes: Restart and Reboot

Before diving into more complex solutions, let's try the basics:

Close and Reopen the Game: Sometimes, a simple restart is all it takes. Close R.E.P.O. completely and try launching it again. This often resolves minor glitches.

Reboot Your PC: If restarting the game doesn't work, a full system reboot might be necessary. This gives your PC a fresh start and can resolve underlying issues affecting the game's performance.

Advanced Troubleshooting

If the simple restarts haven't worked, let's try these more advanced solutions:

Run R.E.P.O. as Administrator: Granting R.E.P.O. administrator privileges can sometimes resolve permission-related issues. Here's how:

  1. Right-click the R.E.P.O. shortcut.
  2. Select "Properties."
  3. Navigate to the "Compatibility" tab.
  4. Check the box labeled "Run this program as an administrator."

Verify Game Files (Steam): If you purchased R.E.P.O. through Steam, verifying the game files can identify and repair corrupted or missing files. Follow these steps:

  1. Restart your PC and open Steam.
  2. Right-click R.E.P.O. in your Steam Library (or click the gear icon).
  3. Select "Properties."
  4. Go to the "Local Files" tab and click "Verify integrity of game files."

Steam will scan your files. Don't worry if a few files fail to verify; this is sometimes normal.

By following these steps, you should be able to overcome the loading screen issue and fully immerse yourself in the chilling world of R.E.P.O.

R.E.P.O. is available now on PC.
