Quick Answer: Does The Midnight Walkers have Crossplay & Cross-Progression?

No, The Midnight Walkers does not support crossplay at this time. Seeing how the game is in active development for PC with no confirmed PS5 or Xbox release dates, the developers haven't discussed crossplay plans yet and have been instead working on patches and new content. Keep checking the Steam page for updates as development continues through 2026. Since there is no cross-platform support, cross-progression is also unavailable.

Technical Details

How Midnight Walkers Online Play Works

Midnight Walkers is a PvPvE extraction shooter set in an isolated building called the Grand Center. You team up in squads (usually up to 4 players) to fight through floors infested with zombies while competing against other player squads for loot. You must extract safely to keep your gear.

Midnight Walkers Solo & Offline Play

While you can queue into the Grand Center solo, there is no offline single-player mode. You will still be on a server with other hostile players and AI zombies. Playing solo is considered 'Hard Mode' as you will likely face full enemy squads.

Midnight Walkers Local Co-Op Support

No, Midnight Walkers does not support local split-screen co-op. It requires a dedicated PC and internet connection for every player.

Does Midnight Walkers support Steam Deck?

Official verification is pending. However, high-fidelity extraction shooters often struggle on Steam Deck due to heavy CPU usage and anti-cheat requirements. Expect to need low settings or experience performance dips until further optimization patches arrive.

Known Issues & Early Access

As an Early Access title, expect occasional server instability, matchmaking bugs, or balancing issues with weapons and zombie AI. The developers are active in patching, but the 'extraction' loop can be frustrating if a server crash causes you to lose loot.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Midnight Walkers coming to PS5 and Xbox?

There is no official release date for console versions yet. The developers are currently focused on the PC Early Access launch on Steam. If the game is successful, console ports are likely to follow later, similar to other extraction shooters.

Is Midnight Walkers PvP or PvE?

It is PvPvE (Player vs Player vs Environment). You fight against AI zombies/monsters AND other human players. You cannot disable PvP; other players can kill you and steal your loot.

Is Midnight Walkers free to play?

The game will enter Early Access on January 29th, 2026, meaning that the pricing model has not been revealed yet.

How many players can be in a squad?

Squads typically support up to 4 players, allowing for tactical team play across the different classes (Assaulter, Medic, etc.).

Does Midnight Walkers support controllers?

Partial controller support is usually available via Steam Input, but as a precision PC shooter, keyboard and mouse provide a significant competitive advantage. No aim assist is guaranteed.
