How many can walk

A single session supports 2 to 12 players. The host holds the save and the world size is chosen before the walk begins, so plan the group size up front.

Crossplay across systems

Crossplay is on across Windows, Mac, PS5 and Switch 2. Anyone on a supported system can join the same session with a Join Code, regardless of where they bought the game.

  • PC players on Windows and Mac share the same builds.
  • Console players join through the same code system.
  • A mixed group still needs everyone on the current build.

Co-op, not competition

Decaying Winter is a cooperative adventure. There are no opposing teams — the challenge is the route itself and whether your group stays together. Conversation, not combat, is the core loop.

Planning a regular group

Pick one host, agree on a world size, and set a standing time. Because the save lives with the host, consistency is what keeps a long walk going week to week.
