Is your friend group larger than 4 people? Must be nice. Well, in that case, someone is bound to feel left out when playing games like Peak. Peak is a cooperative climbing game in which up to four scouts are required to climb a mountain that changes daily.

Currently, you have to navigate through four biomes using rope placements, stamina management, and proximity chat. The maximum number of players in a session is four by default, leaving the rest of your friends on the bench. In this post, we will guide you through how to get rid of that cap with Thunderstore Mod Manager and the Peak_Unlimited community mod.

Note: While the code for this mod is publicly available and safe, using third-party software always involves some risk. Anti-cheat flags can be raised by modded files, and no official support would be available for any problems caused by mods. We advise you to create a backup of your files before proceeding. Only proceed if you accept the risk.

Prerequisites

Here is what you need before you start using this mod:

  • A copy of the game
  • Windows PC with admin privileges
  • A stable internet connection
