Checkpoints

  1. Primary checkpoint

    Pick the platform you will actually main. There is no cross-save: switching PC ↔ console means a fresh character, camp, and stash.

  2. Confirm friends are in the same store region. Crossplay does not remove region matchmaking walls.

  3. Progress past the intro until Team / social invites are available (do not expect full party tools on the first minutes of a new account).

  4. Open the Team menu and add friends by their numeric in-game Player ID — not Steam persona, PSN ID string, or Xbox gamertag alone when the UI asks for Player ID.

  5. Form a party up to three, then queue. In-game voice works across platforms in party; many groups still use Discord.

  6. If someone is missing, you can still queue duo/solo or enable fill depending on mode — see solo vs squad notes for Brandrgarde pressure.

Quick FAQ

Does Mistfall Hunter have crossplay?

Yes. Steam PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S share one server pool and can party and raid together (up to three hunters). Crossplay does not remove store-region matchmaking walls — friends still need the same region to queue together.

Does Mistfall Hunter have cross-progression?

No. Characters, camp upgrades, inventory, and related progress stay on the platform where you earned them. Starting on Game Pass or Steam and later buying another storefront means a separate character on that platform, not a merged account.

Does Mistfall Hunter have cross-save?

No. There is no cross-save / cloud transfer between PC and consoles. Switching platforms is a fresh start for character, camp, and stash. Cross-save and cross-progression are the same practical outcome at launch: progress does not follow you across stores.

If you only remember one line: you can play together; you cannot merge progress.

Who this page is for

  • “Can I play with my PS5 friend from Steam?” → Yes (same region).
  • “I started on Game Pass, should I buy Steam later?” → Only if you accept restarting.
  • “Why can’t we find each other?” → Region, wrong ID, or invites not unlocked yet.

Party size

Up to three hunters. That is the hard cap for a squad you form, not the total hunters who may share one expedition. Duo and solo party sizes still exist on content that offers them; later maps may push you into trio-shaped pressure even if you queue alone — details on solo vs squad. For platform multiplayer maximum vs community-observed match density, see lobby size: players per match.

Invite checklist (intent-first)

  1. Same region on store accounts.
  2. Intro done → Team available.
  3. Exchange numeric Player ID.
  4. Invite → party of ≤3 → queue.

Voice: in-game party VOIP is reported to work cross-platform; external apps remain optional.

Platform notes

  • PC (Steam), PS5, Xbox Series X|S are the launch crossplay set.
  • Day-one Game Pass on Xbox/PC does not create a shared progression bridge to PlayStation.

We mark this corroborated from multiple launch-week guides and databases. If the studio ships cross-save later, this page should be re-verified and the short answer rewritten first.
