Halo: Campaign Evolved PS5 players face complex account and subscription hurdles

Microsoft's upcoming game, Halo: Campaign Evolved, is introducing complex and potentially frustrating requirements for PlayStation 5 players.

For split-screen co-op on PS5, both players must have PlayStation Plus subscriptions and linked Microsoft accounts. PC players on Steam will also need to link a Microsoft account.
