Big Walk Multiplayer Guide - Co-Op, Crossplay & Join Codes
How Big Walk multiplayer works: no public matchmaking, use Join Codes or friend lists, crossplay across Steam, PS5, and Switch 2 with 2-12 players.
Play With Friends in Co-Op and Crossplay
Big Walk is a game to play with friends, so multiplayer is a key piece. There is no online matchmaking, though, so you will need to use join codes or friend lists.
Big Walk is available on PC and Mac via Steam, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2. It is easy to play with people across platforms. Your host gets a code once they start the game; it is on the bottom left of the “Host Game” page. You input that code, given to you by the host, once you are in the “Join Game” menu. Then, just enter the game.
Find Friends From Friend List
On the Join Game page, Big Walk automatically pulls your friends list into the game. People playing on the same platform on your friend list show up here, and you can join straight from there.
