PEAK Game No Cursor Fix
If your mouse cursor disappears in fullscreen mode in PEAK you aren’t the first. This is a known bug, but there are a few workarounds that have helped players until a proper patch arrives.
Quick Fixes That Might Work
Try pressing F5 while in fullscreen
Some players have gotten the cursor to reappear by simply hitting F5 while the game is in fullscreen mode.
Switch to windowed or borderless mode
Go into settings and set the display mode to Windowed or Borderless Window. This almost always brings the cursor back.
Change from DX12 to Vulkan (or vice versa)
Go to the launch options in Steam and switch graphics APIs. Vulkan has fixed the issue for some players, while DX12 fixed it for others. It may depend on your system.
Launch PEAK directly through Steam in DX12
Fully close the game, then open Steam, go to your Library, and launch PEAK through the app while forcing DX12. Some users say this works consistently.
Worst Case: Reinstall the Game
While this is absolutely the last-case resort, this might be the best bet until a patch fixes the bug. Hopefully you won’t have to do this though.
Final Blurb
This bug is frustrating but temporary.
Until the devs patch it, these quick fixes should help you get your cursor back and keep climbing without guessing where your mouse is.
