Quick answer

Big Walk supports crossplay across Windows, Mac, PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch 2. Join a host through an active friend game or enter the Join Code generated for each session.

Joining a session

The host starts the saved world and shares the current Join Code. Platform friend lists may also show the active game.

Mac App Store note

The Mac App Store version does not use a Game Center friend list for joining, so use a Join Code.

Save ownership

Crossplay does not duplicate the main save for guests. The host keeps automatic progress and must host again next time.

Reliable facts at a glance

Big Walk launched on August 4, 2026 for Windows, Mac, PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch 2. It supports crossplay for 2 to 12 players. Progress is saved automatically by the host, so the same host is needed to continue that journey.
