Games like Dear Passengers
Dear Passengers is still unreleased, so this comparison is based on official Steam descriptions rather than a final hands-on build. If you want co-op pressure, physical chaos, and jobs that go wrong fast, start with PEAK, R.E.P.O., and Lethal Company.

Recommendation 01
PEAK is built around a crew trying to survive a bad situation through shared action, item use, and constant mistake recovery. That matches the part of Dear Passengers that looks less like a simulator and more like a co-op disaster machine.
The official pitch is about climbing and survival on a mountain, not serving passengers, piloting a vehicle, or managing transport jobs. Its tension comes from ascent, stamina, and terrain rather than cabin duties or cargo delivery.
Pick PEAK if you want the teamwork-under-pressure part of Dear Passengers, but prefer outdoor survival and climbing over vehicle or management chaos.
Recommendation 02
R.E.P.O. is the cleanest match for the illegal-cargo, physics-mess, and "handle the job carefully before everything breaks" side of Dear Passengers. Its official description centers on extracting valuable objects, moving fragile cargo, and coordinating through danger.
The tone is overt horror and extraction, not a failing-airline parody. Dear Passengers appears to split work across cockpit and cabin roles, while R.E.P.O. frames the run around hauling items out of hostile environments.
Start with R.E.P.O. if your favorite part of Dear Passengers is the idea of fragile cargo, physical slapstick, and a team trying to finish the job before panic or monsters ruin the plan.
Recommendation 03
Lethal Company shares the strongest "crew under quota pressure" energy. Its official Steam page describes scavenging, hauling value back to the ship, using tools, scanning threats, and coordinating so nobody gets left behind.
This is a scavenging horror loop with night danger and abandoned moons, not a comedy-leaning airline setup. Dear Passengers looks broader in job fantasy, with service, flight, passengers, and suspicious cargo all competing for attention at once.
Choose Lethal Company if you want the strongest already-released game for tense group logistics, route planning, tool use, and escalating consequences around a repeated co-op run.

FAQ
Based on official Steam descriptions, the closest current picks are PEAK, R.E.P.O., and Lethal Company because all three focus on co-op coordination, pressure, and a run where mistakes can quickly spiral.
No. Dear Passengers is not released yet. This page compares official Steam descriptions, feature lists, and release status rather than hands-on experience with the final game.
R.E.P.O. is the closest match if you mainly want physics-heavy teamwork around moving valuable cargo through dangerous spaces.
Lethal Company is the strongest fit if you want quota pressure, scavenging, and a clearer horror loop built around risk, extraction, and crew coordination.
PEAK is the easiest recommendation if you want the shared-survival and mistake-punishment side of Dear Passengers, but in a climbing rescue format instead of transport or scavenging.
