help with epic account

Hello McCoy, this is Manuela. I'm an Independent Advisor and community user like you, ready to assist with this.
Not a Microsoft employee.

I'm afraid to say that if the Epic account system is telling you to wait a year before linking a new account, you may need to wait this time.

you need to open a ticket with epic as its linked their side.

Hello, Phoeyu P. I'm Arturo, and I'll be glad to provide assistance with your inquiry today.

I’m sorry to hear you already have an Epic account linked to your Microsoft account, and you don't remember the account you linked.

Not only that, but it is important to point out that it is not possible to unlink an Epic account from your Microsoft account, the process always needs to be done in the Epic linked accounts management site.

If you’re not able to do this, you may want to contact Epic support and ask them what options you may have.

Furthermore, please refrain from sharing personal information, including email addresses, gamertags, etc.

As community users, we are not able to enter or check your account information, and everything we comment can be seen by anyone on the internet.

I know this is not the kind of answer you were expecting, but I appreciate your understanding.

Kind regards,

Arturo.

You can try to link your Xbox Account to your Epic Games account, but it's not guaranteed since you already purchased it:

Please follow this guide

This can also be done on a Xbox:

Oh that means an Epic account was automatically created and linked to your Xbox account

You need to settle it with Epic not Xbox
