Big Walk isn’t ‘friendslop,’ it’s an entirely new type of multiplayer game

Set to launch on PlayStation 5 and Windows PC later this year, Big Walk is the kind of multiplayer game that people were desperate for in 2020. It’s a chill co-op experience where players wander a big, beautiful world and solve little puzzles strewn about it. It’s nothing like Animal Crossing: New Horizons, the go-to hang-out game of the COVID era, but it looks like it’s out to capture that same energy and combine it with House House’s particular brand of comedy.
