Quick answer

Big Walk officially supports a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 12 players. The host selects a 2-player, 3-player or 4+ challenge configuration, which adapts some challenges without hard-locking the room to that number.

Two-player support

Two players can complete the game using the dedicated 2-player challenge setup.

Larger groups

Choose 4+ for four or more players. The session can still grow up to 12, producing a busier and more chaotic communication experience.

Players may rotate

Not everyone must attend every session, but the original host is required because that host owns the save.

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.
