Summary
Big Walk has climbed to a 92 on Metacritic, making the co-op indie 2026’s second highest-rated game behind Sektori at 94.
PlayStation Plus is a key driver of that reach: the game launched day one in the Essential tier, putting it in front of the service’s broadest subscriber base.
The game centers on 2-4 player island puzzles built around proximity chat, walkie-talkies and other communication tools, with solutions scaled to different lobby sizes.
Its breakout comes as PlayStation faces user backlash over plans to scrap physical discs from January 2028, giving the platform a rare positive flashpoint.
