Fans of Lethal Company have reason to celebrate as the game’s creator has decided to return to development after a four-month hiatus. The decision came after playing R.E.P.O., a horror game that has captivated up to 100,000 players on weekends. While the creator found inspiration in R.E.P.O.’s success, they also identified areas for improvement, which will influence the upcoming update for Lethal Company.

It will introduce significant changes designed to enhance the player experience, including new content and gameplay refinements. The developer emphasized eliminating "tedious" mechanics and discouraging overly long play sessions, aiming for a more streamlined and engaging experience.
In their critique of R.E.P.O., the creator highlighted its "dense and slow" pacing, strict stealth system, and enemies that react to human speech. They also expressed dissatisfaction with the stamina mechanics, confirming that these elements would not appear in Lethal Company . Instead, the focus will remain on delivering a balanced and enjoyable experience that stays true to the game’s roots.
With this renewed commitment, Lethal Company is poised to reclaim its status as a standout title in the genre, offering both nostalgia and innovation for its dedicated fanbase.
