Climbing through cliffs and unpredictable weather in PEAK is no easy task. Players must constantly monitor stamina, manage hazards like frostbite or sunburn, and adapt to different biomes. What makes the journey survivable — and often thrilling — are the items scattered across the island. From simple berries to mystical artifacts, every single one can mean the difference between reaching the summit or falling short.
In this guide, we’ll walk you through every item in PEAK, what it does, and where to find it — including the brand-new additions from the MESA update. By the end, you’ll know exactly what to pack, what to toss aside, and how to use each tool to climb smarter, survive longer, and support your teammates.

How To Get & Use Items in PEAK
At the plane crash site, you’ll stumble upon a handful of starter items like a flare, lantern, or compass. These might seem essential at first, but they’ll quickly clog up your inventory. Instead, the real treasures are hidden inside luggage chests scattered throughout the island.
Each chest contains randomized loot: food, healing supplies, or equipment that can drastically improve your odds of survival. Some items are natural resources gathered in the Shore, Tropics, Alpine, Caldera, or Mesa biomes. Others, rarer still, are Mystical Items offered by the Ancient Statue at the end of each level.
The key takeaway: every item in PEAK has a purpose — except for the Conch, which does little more than amuse. Knowing what to carry and when to use it is the heart of mastering survival.
New Items From the MESA Update
The MESA biome didn’t just expand the landscape — it introduced new items that reshape how players approach survival:
- Aloe Vera: Natural cure for sunburn damage.
- Balloon: Slows falling speed, and with enough, you can even float.
- Dynamite: Explodes after ignition for devastating AoE damage.
- Parasol: Reduces fall damage, shields from the sun, and even lets you ride Tornadoes.
- Scout Cannon: Launch yourself — or teammates — across distances.
- Sunscreen: Another line of defense against sunburn.
These items open up new strategies, especially in vertical climbing challenges and the scorching MESA heat.
Healing & Restoration Items
In PEAK, status effects can cripple your climb — poison, frostbite, or exhaustion all hit hard. Thankfully, the island is packed with curatives and restoratives:

Miscellaneous Items
Finally, PEAK sprinkles in a handful of odd, quirky, or achievement-focused items:
Item Name | Item Effect | Source |
---|---|---|
Banana Peel | Causes players to slip, no other use. | Appears on the ground after eating a Berrynana. |

These may not always boost your survival — but they add personality and memorable moments to each run.
Final Thoughts
Mastering PEAK’s item system is as important as scaling its cliffs. From carefully choosing what to pack to discovering biome-specific resources, items are the backbone of survival. Whether you’re patching up frostbite, boosting stamina for a desperate climb, or unleashing a mystical artifact that revives your squad, every decision counts.
So the next time you lace up for another run, remember: knowledge is just as important as stamina. With the right items in your backpack — and the wisdom to use them — the summit doesn’t just feel possible. It feels inevitable.
