In brief

Big Walk is getting a 25% discount on Steam (€14.24 instead of €18.99) until August 18, a week and a half after its launch. Even better: PlayStation Plus Essential subscribers get it for free. But be warned, this is a 100% multiplayer game with no solo mode or random matchmaking — the purchase is really only worth it if you have a group of motivated friends.

Released on August 4th, Big Walk drops from €18.99 to €14.24 on Steam until August 18th. That's a 25% discount, a week and a half after launch. Rare, for a game that just barely came out.

For PlayStation Plus Essential subscribers, it's even better: the game is straight up included in the subscription, so free at no extra cost. For the rest of the game's features (crossplay, player count, multiplayer mode), we refer you to our dedicated article that covers all of that in detail.

Whether it's worth buying mostly depends on your social circle. Big Walk is a 100% multiplayer game, with no solo mode, no random matchmaking, and no couch co-op. So if you have no one to join you on the island, even at €14.24, it's still a cold purchase. On the other hand, if you have a group of two to twelve motivated players, the launch price clearly tips the scales. As for PS Plus Essential subscribers, they don't even need to think twice.
