Which version should you choose?
Windows
Choose for configurable graphics
Best fit when your PC meets the published requirements and you want mouse/keyboard, controller support and graphics controls.
Mac
Choose for Apple Silicon
Confirm macOS 15 and at least an M1 with 16 GB RAM. Use a Join Code on the Mac App Store version when friends-list discovery is unavailable.
PlayStation 5
Choose for the PS5 ecosystem
Useful for an existing PlayStation group. Budget for PS Plus after any time-limited catalog inclusion ends.
Switch 2
Choose for portable play
Nintendo lists handheld, tabletop and TV modes. Online multiplayer still needs stable internet and Nintendo Switch Online.
For a mixed-platform group, choose based on the device each person already owns and can run comfortably. Crossplay means the group does not need to standardize on one storefront.
Price comparison needs a live store check
The announced regular US price is $19.99, but launch discounts, PlayStation Plus inclusion, regional taxes and currency conversion change the checkout price. Open each player's regional store on purchase day. This guide does not convert a current sale into a permanent platform recommendation.
Honest comparison
No invented resolution, frame-rate or exclusive-content claims
The official pages checked for this version do not provide a complete cross-platform resolution/FPS table or identify platform-exclusive game content. Until repeatable tests or official specifications are available, this guide leaves those rows unscored.
