Peak Explores The Roots Update Today
Aggro Crab and Landfall’s cooperative climbing game, Peak, is getting stranger with its latest free update. This indie hit has attracted many friend groups eager to tackle its challenging climbs.
New Biome Inspired by Pacific Northwest Forests
The Roots update introduces a dense forest biome, where players now climb towering trees rather than rocks. The climb presents new difficulties regardless of party size.
Giant Insect Threats
- Players face giant spiders that can trap them in webs and drop them from heights.
- Other large insects also roam this new environment, increasing the hazard level.
Edible Mushrooms and Risky Effects
Players can eat mushrooms found in the forest, though consumption may or may not lead to zombie-like symptoms.
"Players can also munch on the native mushrooms they find... They may or may not cause some zombie-ism."
Cooking System Enhancements
- The update allows players to see effects on non-food items placed in fire, encouraging experimentation.
- Poison can now be cooked out of berries but not mushrooms, so caution with fungi is advised.
The full patch notes are available on Steam for those interested in further details about the update.
