Halo: Campaign Evolved Co-op

Two-player split-screen co-op is available on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. The PC version does not support split-screen, so PC players join online fireteams rather than sharing a screen.

Cross-play and cross-progression require a linked Microsoft account. Campaign progress, collectible progress, and achievements synchronize across linked platforms, but an exact mid-mission checkpoint and player position do not carry over. Guest accounts are not supported—every player needs their own linked account.

No. Halo: Campaign Evolved has no native split-screen mode on PC, and the official Co-op guide limits two-player split-screen to Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. PC players who want to play the campaign together join an online fireteam of up to four instead of sharing one screen. The Steam version follows the same rule, so the answer does not change between the Steam and Xbox app editions.

Community mods or workarounds that claim to add PC split-screen are not official functionality, and this guide does not verify or recommend them. Unofficial modifications can break with game updates and sit outside Halo Support's supported configuration. Treat any such project as an at-your-own-risk extra rather than a feature of the PC release.

Online co-op requires a platform subscription: Xbox online multiplayer needs a Game Pass subscription that includes online play, and PlayStation 5 online play needs PlayStation Plus. PC players on Steam need no extra subscription beyond the free Xbox Network account.

Steam supports offline solo play after the initial account link. On PlayStation 5, players can play offline solo or local two-player co-op after linking. The conservative reading of the saved guidance is that offline mode covers solo and local console co-op, while full online fireteams stay online.
