How can I connect my Epic account in Fortnite?

PawełGoławski · Nov 12, 2018

Recently I installed the game Fortnite on Xbox One S with the thought that I will be able to play on my account in which I have played on PC so far, but when I want to turn on the game requires logging in to the xbox live service and not Epic Games

Hey there Felipe,

Thank you for posting on the Xbox Forums with your question. I would advise that you take a look at the support article from the Fortnite Help page.

How do I connect (link) my console account to my Epic account? Read through it, it'll show you
how exactly to link them.

Also, when you first played on your Xbox account, did you select the option to not create an Epic Account? This could also be causing problems. Take a look at this Support article if this is the case.

Hi there,

there is no option to move items etc from one Xbox Live Account to another, but since it's Fortnite related, there might be an alternate solution.

I think the content for Fortnite is linked to the Fortnite account (Epic account) and that can be linked to a different Xbox Live Account.

For example this link shows how to connect a Epic Account to a console account (via the website):

https://epicgames.helpshift.com/a/epic-accounts/?s=epic-accounts&f=how-do-i-link-my-console-account-to-my-epic-games-account-using-the-web&p=all

Keep in mind to not use the Xbox Live Accounts or Epic Accounts when on a console, since this could result in a new Epic Account being created.

I do advise you to contact Epic Support first so they can confirm the steps to take to make this possible before trying something. The earlier mentioned link has a Contact options.
