As the release date for Big Walk draws closer, players are eager to get their hands on House House’s upcoming co-op adventure. With its unique premise of walking and talking through a vast Australian inspired landscape, many are wondering if they can test the multiplayer systems ahead of the official launch.
The Steam Demo Status
Currently, there is no public Steam demo available for Big Walk. While community members on Reddit have been searching for trial versions or beta tests, developers House House and publisher Panic have not released any public test build on Steam or other platforms. For now, players will have to wait for the final launch to experience the game.
Confirmed Launch Platforms and Crossplay
Though a demo is absent, the release details remain locked in. As confirmed in our release date coverage, Big Walk is set to launch on August 4, 2026.
The game will be available on the following platforms:
- PC (Steam for Windows and Mac)
- PlayStation 5
- Nintendo Switch 2 (expected)
A major highlight is the full crossplay support, which allows groups of 2 to 12 players to join the same lobby regardless of their chosen platform. This is highly beneficial for a game so heavily reliant on group dynamics. If you are looking to assemble your hiking crew early, you can read our guide on how to find co-op partners to prepare.
