InPEAK, your survival often depends on the tools you find. You’ll find a bunch of creative and unexpected tools, but only a few are as strange and effective as theMagic Bean. At first glance, it might seem like a quirkyitem inPEAK, but these magical beans can be a literal lifesaver if you know how to use them correctly inPEAK. If you’ve come across one and aren’t sure what it’s for, or you’re wondering how to find a Magic Bean in the first place, read on.
How to Get Magic Beans in PEAK
The Magic Bean is a special traversal tool that you can find while exploring. It’s one of the rarest finds inPEAKand players will usually have to go through multiple runs before they can find it. Since thePEAK’s maps are procedurally generated, there isn’t a single, fixed location where you can always find a Magic Bean.
To get your hands on a Magic Bean, you need to thoroughly explore each biome, especially theShore and Alpinebiomes. Keep an eye out for a small, red bean when you’re out looting.
In solo play, if you reach the end of a biome, the Ancient Statue (which is normallyused for reviving players) will grant you a random mystical item. The Magic Bean is considered one of these rare, mystical items, so this is another possible way to get it. However, in our dozen hours of solo gameplay, we weren’t able to get one from it.
How to Use Magic Beans in PEAK
Once you get your hands on a Magic Bean inPEAK, you’ll quickly see why it’s one of the most useful climbing tools in the game. The Magic Bean lets you reach otherwise inaccessible places by growing into a really tallvertical beanstalkthat works like a natural climbing pole. This is super helpful when you’re blocked by sheer cliffs or trying to reach elevated areas thatRopes and Pitonsjust can’t touch.
Using a Magic Bean is pretty straightforward: simply take the bean from your inventory,throw it onto a surface, and watch it sprout instantly into a tall, climbable structure. It’s often the only way to reach things like floating luggage or distant ledges that have no natural path.
For best results, save it for areas where you’re stuck without a climbable route. It can be a true game-changer when used wisely.
