PEAK Is Coming to PS5, Xbox Series X|S and Switch 2 on Oct. 22
PEAK's co-op climbing hit launches on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Switch 2 on October 22, bringing crossplay and every content update since 2025.
PEAK is leaving Steam exclusivity behind. Aggro Crab and Landfall confirmed on October 15 that their breakout co-op climbing game launches on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2 on October 22, nearly a year and a half after the PC version turned a month-long game jam into one of 2025's biggest indie hits.
01PEAK's Console Release Date and Platforms
The console versions of PEAK go live on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Switch 2 simultaneously on October 22. The announcement came through a PlayStation Blog post from Landfall's Hanna Fogelberg, paired with a short announcement trailer on Aggro Crab's YouTube channel. PEAK originally launched on Steam on June 16, 2025, built by a joint team the developers call Team PEAK — three Aggro Crab developers (the studio behind Another Crab's Treasure) and four Landfall developers (the studio behind Content Warning) who started the project during a one-month jam in Seoul before finishing it together in Sweden.
02What's Included in the Console Edition
Console players aren't getting a stripped-down launch build. Aggro Crab and Landfall say the PS5, Xbox, and Switch 2 releases ship with every biome, item, and balance pass the PC version has received since launch, including the post-launch content drops that followed the original four climbs. In other words, console scouts start on the same version PC players are currently climbing, rather than catching up over several updates.
The studios haven't published a full console changelog breaking down every post-launch addition by name, so treat any specific biome or item list you see elsewhere as unconfirmed until Aggro Crab or Landfall post their own patch notes for the console build.
03Crossplay Across PC, PS5, Xbox and Switch 2
Crossplay is in from day one. Groups of up to four can mix platforms freely — a PC player can rope in friends on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Switch 2 in the same run, and vice versa. That matters for a game built entirely around shared risk: PEAK drops a party of scouts onto a mysterious island and tasks them with climbing a mountain while managing hunger, stamina, and injuries, with hazards ranging from tornadoes to poison clouds waiting on the way up. Losing a teammate to a bad fall is common enough that the developers' own tagline for the game is simply never to abandon a friend in need, and keeping the whole friend group on one lobby regardless of hardware is clearly the point of shipping crossplay at launch instead of patching it in later.
04The PS5 Physical Edition
Alongside the digital console launch, Aggro Crab and Landfall confirmed a PS5 physical edition is in the works and open for pre-order at select retailers. Early retail listings describe a boxed release that bundles the disc with a Buddy Code — a digital copy you can gift to a friend — and a printed Scout Passport with stickers, reportedly priced around $19.99. A release date in that pricing has circulated as December 9, but Aggro Crab and Landfall have not confirmed that street date on their own channels as of this writing, so treat it as unconfirmed until the studios post it directly. Interestingly, the ESRB's own listing for the PS5 version names Skybound Games as publisher of record for the console release, rated E10+ for Fantasy Violence and Users Interact — a different publishing arrangement than the PC version, which Aggro Crab and Landfall self-published on Steam.
05Price and How to Get PEAK on Console
PEAK sells for $7.99 on Steam, and while neither studio has posted an official console price yet, early listings point to a similar digital price point once storefronts open pre-orders ahead of the October 22 launch. The simplest way to get an accurate number is to check the PS5, Xbox, or Switch 2 store listing directly once it goes live, since third-party price reports have varied in the run-up to launch. For now, the safest bet is to wishlist or follow the game on whichever storefront you plan to buy from and watch for the pre-order page to open before the 22nd.
PEAK is (finally) coming to consoles on OCTOBER 22ND🏔️‼️ it drops with all content updates and crossplay, so you can soon play with friends on... PlayStation 5 XBOX Series X|S Nintendo Switch 2 AND it's coming to physical which you can PRE-ORDER now 💰🫡
— Aggro Crab (@AggroCrabGames), Oct. 15, 2026 on X
PEAK became one of the breakout co-op hits of 2025 almost by accident — Aggro Crab has said the project started as a palate-cleanser after a bigger game lost funding, and it ended up selling millions of copies within weeks of its Steam debut. Bringing that audience to consoles, with crossplay intact and the full content catalog already installed, gives console players a chance to catch up to a community that's spent well over a year learning exactly how brutal that mountain can be.
