Author : Allison Mar 20,2025

In the chaotic world of *R.E.P.O.*, upgrading your arsenal is key to survival. While many items offer combat advantages, the Human Grenade stands out as a particularly potent weapon. This guide will show you how to acquire and effectively utilize this explosive device.

Unlike other items, the Human Grenade is tucked away in the game's Secret Shop, accessible after completing the first round and returning to the Service Station. Finding the shop requires a bit of ingenuity. Look for a removable ceiling tile near the Health Packs. Accessing it solo requires specific items: a Feather Drone, Zero Gravity Drone, or Shockwave Mine. Some players report using stacked objects, but this method is less reliable. With friends, one player can minimize themselves while another assists access.

Once inside, the Human Grenade is yours for $2,000. While there, consider also picking up the Duct Tape Grenade, a more powerful variant.

The Human Grenade boasts a 10-meter range, shorter than stun or shock grenades. However, its unique ability to damage both monsters *and* players makes careful placement crucial. Remember to create distance after throwing it!

While tempting, the Human Grenade might not be the best option compared to the more destructive Duct Tape Grenade. Carefully consider your inventory choices, as facing powerful monsters with weak explosives is a recipe for disaster.

That's how to obtain and use the Human Grenade in *R.E.P.O.* For more survival tips, check out our guide on all monsters and escape strategies.
