The world of spooky games is vast, encompassing classics like *Resident Evil* and *Silent Hill*. Yet, few deliver the unique chilling experience found in *R.E.P.O*. However, some players are encountering a frustrating roadblock: the dreaded loading screen freeze. This guide provides solutions to get you back into the terrifying action.

Many PC players report *R.E.P.O.* getting stuck on the loading screen, preventing gameplay. While developer semiwork hasn't yet addressed this, several fixes are available.
Simple Fixes: Restart and Reboot
The first step is often the simplest. Try closing and reopening *R.E.P.O*. This can resolve minor glitches. If that fails, reboot your PC. Sometimes, a fresh system start clears up underlying issues affecting game performance.
Run as Administrator
Granting *R.E.P.O.* administrator privileges can improve its access to system resources. To do this:
- Right-click the *R.E.P.O.* shortcut.
- Select "Properties".
- Navigate to the "Compatibility" tab.
- Check "Run as administrator".
Verify Game Files (Steam)
Steam users can verify their game files to ensure everything is correctly installed and up-to-date. Follow these steps:
- Restart your PC and open Steam.
- Right-click *R.E.P.O.* in your Steam Library (or click the gear icon).
- Select "Properties".
- Go to the "Local Files" tab.
- Click "Verify integrity of game files".
Note: Some files might fail verification; this is often normal and can be ignored.
