In the chaotic world of *R.E.P.O.*, upgrading your arsenal is key to survival. While many items offer assistance, the Human Grenade stands out as a particularly potent weapon. This guide details how to acquire and effectively utilize this explosive device.
Unlike readily available items, the Human Grenade is tucked away in the game's Secret Shop. Accessible between rounds, this location spares you the risk of encountering enemies during acquisition. To reach the Secret Shop, complete the first round and return to the Service Station. Look for a ceiling tile near the Health Packs—this is your entry point. However, solo access requires specific tools.
To breach the Secret Shop solo, you'll need one of the following items: Feather Drone, Zero gravity Drone, or Shockwave Mine. While some players report using stacked objects, this method is less reliable. Therefore, acquiring one of the listed items is the most efficient approach.
Cooperative play simplifies access. One player can minimize their character while another guides them into the shop using objects like carts for elevation.
Once inside, the Human Grenade awaits, priced at $2,000. Consider also purchasing the Duct Tape Grenade, a more powerful variant, while you're there.

The Human Grenade boasts a 10-meter range, shorter than stun or shock grenades. Crucially, unlike standard grenades, it damages both monsters *and* players. Strategic positioning is vital after deployment.
While seemingly an upgrade, the Human Grenade's practical value is debatable. The Duct Tape Grenade often proves superior in terms of destructive power. Choose wisely based on your tactical needs. Underwhelming explosives can quickly lead to your demise.
