Big Walk Multiplayer & Crossplay Guide
Big Walk is an online co-op game designed around playing with friends. This guide explains player counts, how joining works and cross-platform support.
Player count
The host picks the world version at the start — 2, 3 or 4+ player versions. With 2 players you get a focused co-op experience; with 12 it is an absolute mess of people (in the best way).
Crossplay platforms
- PC (Steam, Windows and Mac)
- PlayStation 5
- Nintendo Switch 2
- All platforms play together online
How joining works
There is no matchmaking — friends join your world with a Join Code. The host holds the save file, so the same host should keep hosting your ongoing adventure.
There is no split-screen or local couch co-op: every player needs their own device and copy.
