Does Halo: Campaign Evolved support crossplay?

Yes for campaign co-op. Halo Support confirms online campaign Fireteams of up to four across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5, with cross-play between those platforms. This is not a traditional competitive PvP crossplay matrix.

How do cross-platform friends connect?

Cross-platform players must add one another by Xbox network Gamertag. The publisher's co-op guide explains that native Steam or PlayStation usernames cannot be used for this cross-platform friend lookup.

Does campaign progress carry between platforms?

Yes, when the same Microsoft account is linked on each platform. Missions, Rally Points, Skulls, Terminals, and achievements sync; mid-mission checkpoints and exact position do not.
