The base game is free, and three tables are free for unlimited play: Wild West Rampage, Fish Tales and Sorcerer's Lair. More than 80 other tables are paid add-ons.

Yes. The Epic Games Store version requires a free Epic account and the Epic Games Launcher.

Does it run on Mac or Linux?

No. The store lists Windows 10 64-bit only.

How big is it?

About 42 GB, according to the Steam listing; the Epic page does not list a storage figure.

Can I use a controller?

Yes. The Epic store lists controller support.

Does Pinball FX have multiplayer?

Yes. Pinball FX supports up to 4 players. Its multiplayer runs through the game's own online service or menus, so PlayBound Connect parties and PlayBound dedicated servers are not available for it. It also supports hotseat play. There is no subscription and no paid multiplayer tier.
