    Is there a way for me to link my switch account or epic games account to my Microsoft account?


    Hi, so I play Fortnite on my Nintendo Switch and I recently got a code that can be redeemed through my Microsoft account, will I get the item if I redeem it or no?

    :)

    Can I transfer games from my Microsoft account to my sons?

    The Wavebreaker add-on is for in-game cosmetic items. It is linked to the Epic Games account it was purchased on, not necessarily your Microsoft account. Family sharing will not share the item with him.

    If the item was not purchased on an Epic Games account linked to his Microsoft account, there is no way for him to use it on his Microsoft account.

    Can I use the same switch email and use it for Fortnite on my Xbox so I can regain all of my progress?

    Hi Kristin, I hope you're doing well. I am an Independent advisor, and I am here to help you.

    Yes, you can. As long as your Switch and Xbox account is linked to your Epic account, you will be able to play the same account on both Switch and Xbox.

    To check the accounts linked to your Epic, kindly go to this link https://www.epicgames.com/account/connections and ensure that you connect the correct Epic account to link your Switch and Xbox accounts.

    This way, when you launch Fortnite on Switch or Xbox console, you will be able to use the account where you have all your progress and in-game purchases.

    We cannot find the email address link to fornite on my sons Xbox

    Hello Richard Aldridge1,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    We understand that you're having trouble finding the email address link to Fortnite on your son's Xbox. As a Microsoft customer support agent, I can assist you with this issue.



    Firstly, please note that Fortnite accounts are managed by Epic Games, not Microsoft. We do not have tool to check if your account was linked to a specific service of a game. However, we find this article that may help you check where you can find the linked account on the Epic Games. One thing here is that you need to sign in to the account. Though they have policy with unlinking an account, it is best to contact the Epic Games support about that.

    If you are unable to access your son's account, I recommend reaching out to Epic Games support again for further assistance.



    Sincerely,

    The error message it's because your Microsoft account has already been linked to a different Epic account not the epic account linked to a different Microsoft account, you can log in the Epic support using Microsoft login to find the account linked to your Microsoft account
