"Peligro" was officially released only on vinyl, in 3 different versions that vary between Colombia and Ecuador. In Colombia, the original pressing and the promotional pressing was released. The original pressing's sound is the official studio version of each song. The promotional version has different musical arrangements, followed by a haunting reverb in each song. In Ecuador, a low-budget pressing made specifically for radio stations was released, with the original studio version of the album that was compressed for the AM/FM radio stations. The album's lead single, was released on 29 January 1993. Shakira then released the album's second single "Brujeria" on 17 April 1993.

The magazine ''[[TVyNovelas]]'' said that she might've also asked for Sony not to handle promotion either.{{fact|date=September 2018}} However, the label did send the album to a few radio stations, and the song "Tú Serás La Historia De Mi Vida" was played on some local stations several months later.{{fact|date=September 2018}} But Shakira's lack of support resulted in the cancellation of rehearsals and live performances, as well as no music videos of songs from the album.<ref name = "DiegoXimenap43"/> While the record was a bit-more well-received from the public than ''Magia'',<ref>[http://shakira.elheraldo.co/discografia/peligro "Peligro"].
