Indie co-op survival adventure PEAK has announced its first major expansion, and it's coming right after the weekend.
Titled Mesa, the upcoming update will be the first major expansion in the game's history. The developers shared a small trailer ahead of the launch, which gave a few ideas about the general theme of the new content. What makes me happy is knowing the launch date, so that my buddies and I can prepare accordingly.
PEAK's Mesa update should be the perfect excuse to pick up the game
PEAK is arguably one of the most fun games I have played with friends, and minor updates have added to the entertainment value. Who could have foreseen the cannibalism update that has been added as actual content? So far, the content updates have been minor, as the focus has been on bug fixes.
Come Aug. 11, that will all change. The Mesa update's trailer might also have revealed what we can expect. There should be a new biome if the cactus is anything of significance. I am more interested in seeing how the new biome fits in with the existing ones on the island.
If you thought survival on the island was hard, it could become even more difficult. We could be getting tornadoes as part of the Mesa update. Of course, this is purely my speculation based on the trailer, but surviving a full-scale tornado might make all our lives pretty difficult.
The developers haven't announced the exact release time, but the update goes live on Monday. Additionally, we can also look forward to an exclusive quest that PEAK will have with Discord. This limited-time quest will be live between Aug. 11 and Aug. 17, and allow you to unlock your very own Bing Bong avatar.
I have also noticed that there's a host of new achievements, which are likely going to be added to the game related to the upcoming update. For the time being, the only option is to wait patiently for Monday to arrive.
