PEAK launches on PlayStation 5 on October 22, 2026 with crossplay. The same-day console release also covers Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch 2, while console players can join the existing Steam community. Team PEAK supports groups of up to four players, including the host, and solo play remains available. The digital console version costs $9.99 USD, online console co-op requires the platform’s subscription, and progress does not carry between platforms (PlayStation Blog; Landfall FAQ).

The official FAQ establishes the price, while download size, accessibility fields, preorder availability, preload timing, and the exact unlock hour remain pending until Sony publishes the listing.
Does PEAK on PS5 have crossplay?
Yes. Team PEAK says console players can join the existing Steam community and players on the other console platforms. The PlayStation announcement describes a group as one player plus up to three friends, for four climbers in total.
Crossplay does not include cross-save. Landfall’s FAQ states that progress does not sync between platforms. A Steam save, badges, and unlocks stay separate from a new PS5 save.
The developers have not published the PS5 invite flow, account-linking steps, or a crossplay settings guide. Mixed-platform groups should wait for the launch interface or an official setup page before planning around a particular friends-list or external-account requirement.
Do you need PlayStation Plus to play PEAK online?
Yes. Landfall says console players need the platform’s online subscription to play with other people. On PS5, that means an active PlayStation Plus membership for online co-op. Solo play works offline without a subscription.
This requirement does not mean PEAK will be included in the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog or offered as a monthly game. Neither Sony nor Landfall has announced catalog inclusion. The confirmed digital console price is $9.99 USD.
What content is included in the PS5 version of PEAK?
The PS5 build includes all content updates, biomes, and new items added since PEAK’s original launch. Landfall’s current FAQ says the Citadel and Gloom biomes completed the game’s final major update, while the team will continue bug fixes and maintenance.
The PlayStation announcement describes climbs through four biomes during a run. Hazards include tornadoes, poison clouds, birds, and zombies. Custom-run options let a group adjust difficulty, and the console version includes the option to kick friends during custom runs.
PEAK remains a climbing game about escaping a mysterious island by reaching the summit. Players manage stamina, injuries, food, and climbing tools while helping the group cross ledges and hazards. Landfall’s official game page confirms online co-op and offline single-player play.
What should PS5 and PC players expect next?
PS5 players should check the US PlayStation Store before October 22 for the final download size, accessibility details, preorder or preload status, and local unlock time.
PC players can plan a shared four-person climb with friends on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, or Switch 2 from October 22. Each platform keeps separate progress. Players comparing other announced co-op releases on the same hardware can also see Join Us for PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X|S.
PS4 support remains unannounced. GamerHeadlines should update this same canonical URL if Sony publishes the product page, launch timing, download size, or platform-specific accessibility information.
