REPO Ghost Haul on the PS Store isn’t the real horror hit from Steam. Don’t get scammed
Fake versions of the popular multiplayer game are spreading, and REPO Ghost Haul is one of them. Here’s how to spot the knockoffs.
Games getting copied by other developers is nothing new, unfortunately – it’s been happening for years, with popular titles often becoming targets for cheap imitations. But R.E.P.O. – the massive Steam hit that pulled in 50K+ players overnight – has been getting so many rip-offs that it’s getting a little out of hand. Some have already been taken down, but now, yet another one seems to be in the works.
Scam alert! Fake R.E.P.O. games are showing up on PS store
R.E.P.O. launched on Steam in Early Access on February 26, 2025, and as of now (March 20), that’s the only place you can play it. There’s no word yet on a console or mobile release, but somehow, lookalike games are already popping up on Google Play and the App Store. Just a heads-up – they’re not the real deal.
The developers have implemented anti-hacking measures to prevent the game from being pirated on PC, but dealing with knockoffs on other platforms is a much bigger challenge.
PlayStation Store
R.E.P.O.: Ghost Haul has been announced on PlayStation store, and just like R.E.P.O. Horror, this one’s also just a clone of the real game. The description might look similar, but there are clear signs that set the fakes apart from the real deal.
The easiest way to spot them is by checking the developer or publisher info. The real R.E.P.O. is developed by semiworks, a small studio from Sweden, and they haven’t released or announced their game on PS5 or Xbox. Another red flag is the lack of any trailers or gameplay screenshots – if those are missing, it’s probably not legit.
