    Game Sharing with my household

    Hi Scottynerica, I hope you're doing great out there despite the issue that you're experiencing. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regards to your concern.

    Just a friendly reminder though that you can only share the games that you own in one console at a time and you will be given 5 switches per year only and this means that you may need to re-purchase the game for the players where you can't share your games and subscriptions.

    He would either need to continue using your account and you create a new one for yourself or you'll need to create a new account for your son and he would have to start over.

    I'm sorry but assets including achievements are not transferable between accounts

    It depends, because Epic Games doesn't allow you to play the same Fortnite account at the same time. It will remove the other Fortnite Game session from Gameplay. If you're trying to play Fortnite with your own account, you'd need to unlink the Xbox account from, in your current situation, your son, and then you'd need to make a new Xbox Account for your Son, and link the new Xbox Account to his Epic Games Account. You will, however not be able to see your son's Fortnite Game progress, since you've transferred it to a new Xbox account. I'd recommend you to follow up with Xbox Support and Epic Games.
