Conquering a level in the cooperative game R.E.P.O. is a significant achievement. After your victory, a trip to the Service Station unlocks the opportunity to purchase various weapons and upgrades, including the invaluable Energy Crystals. Let's explore their function and how to acquire more.

What Are Energy Crystals in R.E.P.O.?

These shiny yellow crystals, found at the Service Station after completing the first level, cost between $7,000 and $9,000. Early in the game, when the difficulty is lower, they're typically cheaper, offering a chance to stock up if you've had a successful run.

Purchasing an Energy Crystal adds an Energy Container/Station to your R.E.P.O. truck. This is a game-changer, allowing you to recharge tools like the Valuables or Extraction Tracker. Simply place them in the container (indicated by a yellow lightning bolt) to begin recharging, saving money on replacements and extending your resources. You'll be ready to tackle the next Clown, Gnome, or Shadow Child with confidence.

While automatically placed in the container upon purchase, Energy Crystals have a finite lifespan. Each crystal roughly refills four battery sections of an item, with six crystals needed to fully charge the Energy Container. Once depleted, they need replacing.

How To Get More Energy Crystals in R.E.P.O.

Energy Crystals are exclusively purchased at the Service Station, and their cost can be substantial. Maximize your earnings by diligently looting and scavenging valuables in each level. Remember, only after successfully completing a level with sufficient funds will the Taxman transport you to the Service Station.

During challenging levels, prioritize escaping with enough money to proceed, rather than risking losing valuable resources.

This covers the functionality of Energy Crystals in R.E.P.O. and how to obtain them.
