    Family Account and Fortnite


    My nephew plays Fortnite using my account. If I create a child account for him, can he still play on his Fortnite account so we're not knocking each other offline? What would I have to do?

    :)

    Family Account and Fortnite

    Hey Buck, thanks for taking the time to bring us this issue! Short answer, no. There is only one Gamertag per Microsoft account and only one Epic Games account can be linked to a Gamertag. The best course of action would be to start a whole new
    Microsoft account and link it to a new

    Epic Games account     and have him start again. Hope this helps!

    Please Reach Out To Me.

    Only adults may make such changes to their family account, you will have to speak to your parent and see if they change your settings and allow Fortnite.

    Can’t play Fortnite on shared Xbox one?

    Have you added her to your family account? You can do that and make your console you Home Console. This will allow them to share your Live Gold.

    That's how I have mine setup and the kids can access multiplayer just fine for Fortnite

    Hope that helps
    Are they sharing one xbox? We have both accounts logged on one console and we have the family thing set up. I can play other multiplayer games online, but it will not allow me to log into fortnite. Even with her signed out of xbl and my account logged in,
    it brings up her fortnite account already logged in. We cant log hers out without unlinking.
