All released versions support online crossplay. See the crossplay guide for joining friends across platforms.
Windows and Mac
Steam sells both the Windows and macOS versions. The computer version supports mouse and keyboard and most game controllers. Before buying for a computer, compare the exact CPU, memory, graphics and operating-system requirements in the system requirements guide.
Mac is also available through the Mac App Store. House House notes that this version does not integrate with Game Center for the in-game friends list, so Mac App Store players need a Join Code to connect.
PlayStation 5
The PlayStation Store lists Big Walk for PS5. Because the game is online-only multiplayer, PlayStation Plus is required for online play. The listing supports up to twelve online players.
The August 2026 PlayStation Plus inclusion is time-limited and can change, so check the live store rather than treating a dated subscription offer as permanent.
Nintendo Switch 2
Nintendo lists Big Walk specifically for Nintendo Switch 2, not the original Switch. It supports TV, tabletop and handheld play modes. Online multiplayer requires the applicable Nintendo Switch Online access; Nintendo also lists Save Data Cloud support.
The Nintendo listing reports a 3.9 GB game file, but storage requirements can change with updates. Check the current store page before downloading.
Unsupported platforms
House House says no other platforms are planned at the time checked. That means this page does not claim support for:
- Xbox One or Xbox Series consoles;
- the original Nintendo Switch;
- PlayStation 4;
- Linux.
This is a current availability statement, not a prediction that those versions can never exist. The platform facts will be rechecked if House House or Panic announces a change.
