PEAK is an exciting indie game that offers players the thrill of scaling a procedurally generated mountain, which transforms daily. With frequent updates and new features added regularly, there’s always something fresh to explore and experience.
For those who might not find sheer mountain climbing engaging, the game also has a diverse array of cosmetic items that you can unlock through gameplay. However, players will need to invest time and effort across multiple runs to collect all items available.
In this guide, I will detail the various unlockable cosmetics and outline how players can obtain them. For achievement hunters, this guide will serve as a comprehensive walkthrough to help you achieve every accomplishment available in the game.
Unlocking Cosmetics in PEAK
Each cosmetic item is associated with a specific badge that players can earn. These badges can be acquired by reaching certain sections of the mountain or by completing particular tasks and utilizing specific items.
Below, I’ll provide a comprehensive list of cosmetics along with guidelines on how to obtain them. I will also indicate which items require co-op multiplayer, so whether you’re looking to collect something specific or aim to fulfill an achievement, you’ll know exactly what’s needed.

While these cosmetic items aren’t essential for gameplay, they provide a fun way for players to express themselves. Watching your friends struggle with a challenge while sporting a unique badge can be particularly amusing. While most badges can be completed solo, having friends join you can enhance both the fun and your chances of success.
At its essence, PEAK is a co-op game, making it easier to collect badges if you team up with another player. While it’s certainly possible to embark on expeditions alone—and sometimes necessary for certain badges—nothing quite compares to the laughter and excitement generated by your friends as they tumble down the mountainside.
