How to link and unify different Fortnite accounts from different consoles and platforms
For, link the different Fortnite accounts you may have, there are several steps to take. It may seem complex at first, but we are going to explain it in detail, step by step, so you don't have any problems.
Identify the primary and secondary accounts
The first thing you need to do is determine which is the account that contains the purchases and the progression that interests you the most to make it the main one, to which all the others will be linked. Once you have decided, it is time to move on to the next step.
Associate each Epic account to your console
You will have to perform this step in each of the Fortnite Battle Royale accounts that you want to link, both the main one and the secondary ones. The first thing you have to do is enter the official website of epic Games (You can do it through this link) and log in with one of your accounts to verify if the console to which the account belongs is associated with the Epic account.
- Select the console you want to log in to in the pop-up screen to verify the account.
- If it redirects you to the Epic games home page, skip to step 4.
- If your console does not have an associated Epic account, you will need to create a new one. Fill in the different fields of the form to create an account associated with the platform that you indicated when logging in. Put a valid email account as they will send you a link to verify the account.
- Repeat the procedure with the rest of the accounts to associate each platform on which you play to one of them. You must use different and valid emails for each account since only one can be associated with each one.
Unlink secondary accounts
Now that you have each platform associated with an Epic account, it's time to unlink the secondary ones to be able to link them to the main one.
- Go back to the page of epic Games and log in with your secondary account (you will have to repeat the process for each secondary account). Please note that secondary accounts will lose purchase options until the account merge is complete in November.
- Go to the tab connected accounts within the Account menu and click "disconnect" on the console that is linked to this account.
- Check the email if you haven't done it before, read and accept the conditions to unlink the account, and confirm the unlinking when you're ready.
- Repeat the process for each secondary account.
Link the secondary accounts with the main one
It was time for the last step. Now touch link child accounts that we have already unlinked from your consoles in the previous step with the main account that is still linked to a console.
- Go back to the Epic Games page and log in with your main account (the one of the platform whose progress you want to maintain).
- Open the Account drop-down menu at the top of the page and go to the connected accounts tab and click "connect" to select secondary platforms.
- Each time you link to a new platform, you will access the login page for that console.
