Unlike other items in *R.E.P.O.*, the Human Grenade is tucked away in the Secret Shop, a place you'll need to put in some effort to reach. Fortunately, you can access it between rounds, so you won't have to fend off Clowns or other creatures to claim this explosive.
To access the Secret Shop, complete the first round and head to the Service Station. While you're restocking, look for the ceiling tile above the Health Packs. This is your entry point to the Secret Shop. In solo mode, getting in isn't as straightforward as climbing shelves. Here are the items you can use to gain access after removing the tile:
- Feather Drone
- Zero Gravity Drone
- Shockwave Mine
Some players have also tried stacking objects in the Service Station to reach the shop, but this method can be cumbersome. Your best bet is to save up enough in-game currency to purchase one of the items listed above.
If you're playing with friends, accessing the Secret Shop becomes much easier. Have one player shrink down and guide them into the shop after standing on a cart or another item.
Once inside the Secret Shop, you can purchase the Human Grenade for $2,000. While you're there, consider picking up the Duct Tape Grenade, which combines multiple Human Grenades, to maximize your explosive arsenal.

How to Use the Human Grenade in R.E.P.O.
The Human Grenade is a throwable item in *R.E.P.O.* with a range of about 10 meters, shorter than the Stun and Shock Grenades. The key difference is that it can damage both players and monsters, so make sure to move out of its blast radius after throwing it.
Although the Human Grenade might seem like an upgrade over the regular Grenade, its utility can be debated. In reality, the Duct Tape Grenade, which you can also find in the Secret Shop, offers significantly more destructive power. Keep this in mind when deciding what to add to your inventory, as you'll want to be well-equipped to handle the relentless onslaught of monsters in *R.E.P.O.*.
And that's everything you need to know about obtaining and using the Human Grenade in *R.E.P.O.*. For more tips, check out our guides on all the monsters in the game and how to escape them.
