FitGirl Repacks is a website distributing pirated video games. FitGirl Repacks is known for "repacking" games – compressing them significantly so they can be downloaded and shared more efficiently.[2][3] TorrentFreak listed FitGirl Repacks at sixth in 2024[4] and at ninth in 2020's Top 10 Most Popular Torrent Sites lists.[5]

FitGirl, the creator of the site, does not crack games; instead, she uses existing game installers or pirated game files like releases from the warez scene and repacks them to a significantly smaller download size. The repacked games, usually limited to Microsoft Windows, are distributed using file hosting services and BitTorrent. They are generally accompanied during installation by the song Tsuki Sayu Yoru by Hiromitsu Agatsuma.[6]

The mascot of FitGirl Repacks is the French actress Audrey Tautou as she appears in the 2001 movie Amélie, a French romantic comedy directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet.[7]

Retrieved 24 December 2020. Despite the claims that Fitgirlrepacks.co is the "ONLY official site for FitGirl Repacks", this site is far from official. As per the warning on the real FitGirl site, this is a fake, "made to infect you with malware, show you tons of ads and get your money as donations." The claim that the domain is a malware trap appears to be supported by anti-malware software MalwareBytes, which blocks the platform while warning of 'trojan'. The big question is why this domain (and the several others that appear following a basic 'FitGirl' search) are promoted to the top spots by Google.
