REPO: What Is the Duck Bucket

This guide will explain everything you need to know about the Duck Bucket, an upcoming item in semiwork’s horror game REPO.

Semiwork shared their upcoming plans for their co-op extraction horror game REPO. The first update for REPO brings a new map called “The Museum,” facial expressions for characters, and more. This update also brings along some quality-of-life improvements, like a flashing indicator to warn players of loot sticking out at the extraction point, among other things. The game will be getting a parkour system with the upcoming update.

The developers have considered player feedback important and will be making the required changes soon. One of the more interesting features announced for the first update is the Duck Bucket. This feature is another quality-of-life solution to one of the game’s most annoying issues: the Apex Predator duck. In this article, we’ll quickly go over what makes the Duck Bucket a hilarious yet necessary update to REPO.

The Duck Bucket Explained

The duck, also known as the Apex Predator, is an entity that follows players around wherever they go. The catch is that if players pick up or damage the duck, it turns into a terrifying monster and attacks the players for 10 seconds. Any unlucky player in the beast’s path is set to lose a ton of health and maybe even die.

That’s where the item known as the Duck Bucket comes in. Players can simply pick up this item and put it on the annoying duck to pacify it. This will stop the duck from following players around the map. The best thing about this item is that it will stop players from accidentally turning on the duck’s beast mode. This could save a lot of valuable loot from getting damaged and preserve a lot of health points for players.

The bucket comes with a no-duck symbol on it, which is obviously its defining feature. Players will definitely make good use of this simple yet effective item. However, as of now, there’s no set release date for the game’s first update since its launch in February 2025. It’s the game’s first major update and is completely free. Semiwork suggests that players check out their social media for details regarding its release.

Other Features Coming to the Game

The developers will also be adding a kick button to public as well as private lobbies of the game. An all-new parkour system is in the works for the game. Developers suggested players try it out with “The Museum” map when it drops. The video also mentioned that Semiwork will be making changes to the “late-game” section of REPO’s matches.

Keep Playing

The developers also claimed to be “making time” to work on more levels and enemies for the game, with no release window as of now. REPO is set to max out its player count with all these upcoming features and The Museum level. The team at Semiwork also asked players for feedback on their official Discord server. REPO has over 52,000 concurrent players on Steam and an all-time high record of 271,571 players on March 23, 2025. The game is PC exclusive and is the third highest-selling game on Steam.
