FAQ

Is there matchmaking?

No, PEAK is a Steam-friends only game. If you’re lacking in the friend department, you can play solo or join our discord http://discord.gg/peakgame

What platforms can you play PEAK on?

At the moment we’re only supporting Windows PC’s for the game, in the future we might decide to support more platforms.

What are the future plans for PEAK?

As we’ve said since launch, PEAK isn’t a live-service-game. This means that it’s a finished game at launch and that any updates should be seen as bonuses. The game is developed by a small team made up of developers from two different studios, Aggro Crab and Landfall, and both studios will eventually return to working on their own games.

In 2026 we’re focusing on making quality of life updates and the final biome update.

Can I play single-player?

Yes, you can play single-player offline!

I want to rebind my keys

You can now rebind keys in-game!

I get motion sick while playing PEAK

We’ve added an option to reduce head bobbing to help with motion sickness. We can also recommend this mod which lets you play in third-person: https://thunderstore.io/c/peak/p/LeftOut/StableThirdPersonCamera/

Is there a bug phobia/arachnophobia mode?

Yes, you can switch out all arachnids with Bing Bong! If you have bug phobia mode enabled it will always be turned on for you, even if you join a game where the host has it disabled.

Where do I report bugs?

You can report bugs in the Steam forums or on our Discord server: http://discord.gg/peakgame

Screenshots, videos and player logs are always very helpful! See below where you find your player log.

A random player joined my lobby without being invited

When you play with strangers or stream the game, people might sometimes come into your lobby to grief.

To prevent random players from joining uninvited, you and everyone in the lobby should set Lobby Mode in the settings to Invite Only. For extra protection, you should also set your Steam profile to Private to stop others from searching you up on Steam and joining. If you're a streamer, we also recommend having a separate name for your Steam profile that you don't show on stream, as this is a common issue across many games.

Please remember to re-host the lobby after changing these settings.

It’s unfortunately difficult for us to safeguard against lobby invasions. Steam has a feature where others can join through your profile, which is great for people wanting to invite strangers into their games but not so great for those who doesn't. Setting your lobby and Steam profile to private should increase your protection. We use Photon for server relays, meaning your IP address should not be visible to invaders.

If someone is able to invade your lobby even after taking these precautions, it would be really helpful if you could send us your player log so that we can investigate further (see steps below).

Where to find player logs

When reporting bugs to us, player logs are useful as they help us track down the issue!

The log only contains info from your latest game session, so get the log right after the issue has occurred in the game. It can be found here:

Press the Windows key + R and type appdata into the prompt that appears. Then navigate to LocalLow\LandCrab\PEAK > locate the file called “Player” and send it to support@landfall.se

Troubleshooting

The game isn't receiving inputs properly

If you're experiencing issues where inputs aren't registering properly, such as the character stopping despite W being held down or the mouse being pulled toward the center of the screen, then check if you have any controllers or similar peripherals (like a joystick) plugged in or connected to the computer. If so, try unplugging/disconnecting it and launch the game with only mouse & keyboard.

Textures are not loading properly in the airport

This can unfortunately happen if your GPU is below the minimum requirements for the game. You can try the following and see if that helps: Right-click on PEAK in your Steam Library > Properties > Launch Options > Add the following: -gpuCulling false > Then start the game using DX11/12.

The game has no audio/Can’t hear other players

Double-check that the sound hasn’t been muted in the game, sometimes the volume gets set to 0 due to a bug.

Troubleshooting for disconnection/Photon issues

Keep in mind Steam servers go offline every Tuesday for routine maintenance, but if the issues persists beyond that please try these steps:

  • Exclude the game in your antivirus

  • Restart your computer and verify your game files in Steam: Right-click on PEAK in your Steam Library > Properties > Installed files > Verify integrity of game files

  • Make sure you have a stable internet connection

  • Try shutting down any other programs while playing, something might be interfering with the game in some way

  • If you’ve installed any mods for the game, try removing them completely

  • Restart your router

  • Check if you have a program called cFosSpeed. It's comes with certain motherboards and can cause issues with Photon - other players have reported that it helps to uninstall cFosSpeed

  • Make sure you are friends on Steam with everyone in the lobby: We believe the disconnection issues can happen if anyone in the group has set their Steam profile to “Friends Only” and you are not friends on Steam. Check here > Go to your Steam Profile > Edit Profile > Privacy Settings.

  • Try playing with/without a VPN

  • Take a look at https://landfall.se/troubleshooting for potential fixes

Run the game as an admin:

  1. Right-click on Peak in your Steam Library > Manage > Browse local files

  2. Right-click on PEAK.exe and select Properties, then select the Compatibility tab

  3. Check “Run this program as administrator” and click OK

If you are located in Russia - due to government restrictions, some internet providers block certain IPs which prevents the game from connecting to the Photon servers. You can try reaching out to your internet provider and see if they have more info on this. For some it has helped to use a VPN, this and this guide may also help.
