Games like PEAK: climbing, physics chaos and voice chat picks, with console availability

PEAK just arrived on consoles, so a lot of new players want a second game for the same group on the same system. The best match depends on whether you came for the climbing, the physics chaos, the voice chat comedy or the quiet moments, and several of the famous picks are still PC only.

PEAK at a glance

Picks: 11 games in 4 groups
PEAK on consoles: Since 22 Oct 2026, with cross-play
PC only: R.E.P.O., Lethal Company, Chained Together, Peaks of Yore
PEAK on Steam: 95% positive, 23 Oct 2026

01 / The short answer

Chained Together, Lethal Company and R.E.P.O. are the closest matches, but on console start with Content Warning or Human Fall Flat.

PEAK mixes three things: a climb where grip and stamina matter, physics that make friends fall in funny ways, and proximity voice chat that turns every mistake into a story. Chained Together comes closest on climbing chaos, and Lethal Company and R.E.P.O. own the voice chat comedy, but all three are PC only on 23 October 2026.

On PS5, Xbox and Switch 2, start with Content Warning or Human Fall Flat, which are on all three. PS5 and Switch 2 players also get Big Walk, and PS5 players get Cairn for serious solo climbing. RV There Yet? is on PC and Xbox, with a PS5 version announced but not out yet.

Best forGroups of two to four friends who play PEAK for the laughs and want a second game for the same voice chat.

Think twice ifYour group is on PlayStation or Switch 2 and wants the Lethal Company style horror games. Those are still PC only.

02 / The reasons

Why PEAK works, and what to look for next

PEAK is a co-op climbing game from Aggro Crab and Landfall. Up to four friends try to climb the mountain at the centre of a mysterious island, managing stamina, injuries and questionable food while talking over proximity chat, and the island changes every day. Steam players rate it 95 percent positive from about 147,000 English reviews on 23 October 2026.

On 22 October 2026 it launched on PS5, Xbox Series X|S and Switch 2 with cross-play, joined through room codes. Team PEAK says Steam progress does not transfer, and that the August 2026 update was the final big content drop, with 208 new maps now rotating.

That leaves four reasons to choose a follow-up for: the climbing itself, the physics chaos, the voice chat comedy and the calmer, shared exploring. Platforms for every pick are as listed in the stores on 23 October 2026.

03 / Climbing

If you loved the climbing itself

These games treat every handhold as a decision. All three are single-player, so they suit the scout who wanted more of the climb and less of the chaos.

CairnA survival climber from The Game Bakers where you can climb any surface, placing hands and feet yourself and managing pitons and supplies on an unclimbed mountain. Steam describes every wall as a boss fight. Platforms: PC and PS5, both since 29 January 2026; the Nintendo eShop lists a Switch 2 version for 2027.
Peaks of YoreFirst-person physics climbing set in 1887, with unlockable gear and harder modes called You Fall You Die and Free Solo. Platforms: PC only. Steam rates it 97 percent positive on 23 October 2026.
JusantA calm, meditative climb up a huge tower with a small water creature, from Don't Nod. Platforms: PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Oruvai's read: the pick for players who loved the views more than the panic.

04 / Physics chaos

If you loved the physics chaos with friends

Half the jokes in PEAK come from a friend slipping at the worst moment. These games are built around that kind of failure.

Chained TogetherOne to four players chained to each other climb out of Hell, and the chain is fully simulated, so one bad jump drags everyone down. It has online and local split-screen co-op. Platforms: PC only; games with similar names on console stores are different games.
Human Fall FlatWobbly physics puzzles for up to eight players online, easy for anyone to pick up. Platforms: PC, Mac, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and Switch, plus a Nintendo Switch 2 Edition (19 March 2026) whose GameShare lets a friend play without owning the game.
RV There Yet?A group drives an RV home over rough back roads, using a physics winch and keeping the vehicle together as it falls apart. Platforms: PC and Xbox Series X|S (since 30 June 2026). The PlayStation Store listed the PS5 version as announced on 23 October 2026, and the developer says full cross-play arrives with it.

05 / Voice chat

If you loved the voice chat comedy

Proximity chat means you only hear friends who are near you, which is half the comedy when someone wanders off. These three add horror to it, so check that your group is fine with jump scares.

Lethal CompanyA co-op horror game about scavenging scrap on abandoned moons to sell to the Company, with proximity chat and walkie-talkies. It is still in Early Access. Platforms: PC only. Steam rates it 97 percent positive from about 277,000 English reviews on 23 October 2026.
R.E.P.O.Up to six players haul fragile, physics-based valuables out of haunted places while talking over proximity voice chat. It is still in Early Access. Platforms: PC only. Steam rates it 96 percent positive on 23 October 2026.
Content WarningTwo to four players film scary things in the Old World to go viral on SpookTube. It came to PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Switch and Switch 2 on 1 April 2026, when the Steam version also gained cross-play through friend codes. It is also published by Landfall, and it is the best console pick in this group.

06 / Calmer picks

If you loved exploring together, or the survival pressure

Big Walk, from House House, the studio behind Untitled Goose Game, is the closest match to PEAK's friendlier side: a big world to walk through and puzzles you solve by talking, with proximity voice chat that fades with distance and muffles through walls. It launched on 4 August 2026 on PC, Mac, PS5 and Switch 2 with cross-play, and Nintendo lists online play for 2 to 12 players. Steam rates it 96 percent positive on 23 October 2026.

Raft is the longer commitment: survive in the open ocean alone or with friends online, hooking debris and building a floating home while sharks circle. It is on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S (consoles since 4 December 2024), and cross-play moved from the Steam beta branch to the main version in March 2026. Oruvai's read: it suits groups who liked managing food and stamina in PEAK more than the jokes.

08 / Verdict

Which game to play after PEAK

For a PC group that loved the shouting, Lethal Company or R.E.P.O. is the natural next night, and Chained Together if you want to keep climbing and blaming each other. For a group spread across consoles, Content Warning is the easiest choice: it is on every platform PEAK is on, and its Steam version gained cross-play with consoles in April 2026.

If one of you mainly loved the climb, Cairn or Peaks of Yore makes a good solo game between group sessions. If your group is gentle and chatty rather than chaotic, Big Walk is the better fit.

Best fit: friend groups who play PEAK for the laughs and want another short-session co-op game. Think twice if: your group dislikes horror, or you play on console and want the PC only voice chat games.
