Follow this comprehensive guide to learn about all controls in PEAK, including basic movement, interaction, climbing, and more.

PEAK, the climbing game, was released about a week ago, on June 16, 2025. The game brought much-needed freshness, diversity, and quirkiness to the June gaming lineup. Looking at its name, you can probably guess the gameplay and character of the game.
The game requires you to undergo several expeditions set in different locations while tackling various intense challenges. Since PEAK does not allow saving the game, you need to tackle these expeditions in one go. Therefore, the correct knowledge of controls plays a significant role in your game progression.

Controls Guide for PEAK

Although most of the controls in the game are beginner-friendly, some inputs can be a challenge to figure out on their own. Some examples of such controls are – sprinting, using an emote, and interacting with items.
Unlike other games where you have the liberty of binding the controls according to your preferred choice and gameplay style, PEAK does not allow you to bind the controls. This restriction mainly applies to the keyboard only, as you can change some of the controls while using a controller with the help of Steam input.
