The Mesa Update for PEAK is now out, and it has some interesting and amazing content for players. The new biome and a handful of new items, along with 10 badges, have got players hooked.
I have created a guide to help all aspiring scouts to collect the new badges added into the mix. With this addition, the total number of badges in PEAK now reaches 42. Here is how you can unlock every new Mesa badge in PEAK.
How to Unlock Mesa Badges in Peak
Here is a detailed description that you can follow to unlock all the latest badges in the Mesa update in PEAK.
Badge | Purpose | How to Unlock |
Aeronautics Badge | Lets the scouts fly | Equip 5 balloons. You can find balloons in balloon packs in your luggage. |
Daredevil Badge | Shoot across the Mesa canyon in a Scout Cannon | To unlock it, you will have to use the Scout Cannon found at the start of the canyon path at the base of the Mesa mountain. You don’t have to put yourself in the canyon to unlock this badge. Many players have unlocked it by simply lighting it up. If this doesn’t happen with you, you can put yourself into the cannon and light it up. |
Megaentomology Badge | It lets you survive an Antlion attack | You will actually have to let an antlion bite you to unlock this badge. Look for pits around the canyon and jump inside it. Let the antlion bite you and kill it afterwards. Ask your friends to pull you out from the pit; if playing solo, use a rope, tie it around yourself and to some pitons on the other side. Pull yourself out after the bite. |
Astronomy Badge | You can look better at the sun | Use your binoculars to unlock the astronomy badge. |
Needlepoint Badge | Have a lot of cactuses stuck to you | Search for a place with five small cacti, let them stick to you, and then remove them. |
24 Karat Badge | Offer the Kiln a worthy sacrifice | Throw the Golden Idol into the lava. This badge is currently available due to a glitch, but it will be fixed soon, hopefully. |
Cool Cucumber Badge | Deal with the Mesa heat while staying below 10% heat | To get this badge, use the sunscreen, the parasol, or sun-dodging. |
Ultimate Badge | Catch a flying disk from 100m | Get the Flying Disk on the Shore and get to the Campfire. Toss it to another player at the starting area. You can also unlock this badge when playing solo. Simply toss the disk flat in a horizontal direction. Go down and pick it up. |
Nomad Badge | Climb past the Mesa | It is unlocked after you reach the Campfire at the top of Mesa for the first time. |
Resourcefulness Badge | Give in to your hunger | Turn on the cannibalism option from the settings and enable multiplayer mode. Wait till your hunger drops to 60%, and then eat one of your friends. You will know which of the players is eatable, as they will turn into chickens when you go near them. |
Unlocking badges also gives players more cosmetic items. We will update this guide as new badges are added by the developers. So, don’t forget to come back to this page.
