how to check which microsoft account is linked to my ps5 minecraft microsoft account

Hi sxlyr,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Xbox Community. I understand that you have an existing Microsoft account that is linked to your PlayStation.

However, according to Minecraft's policy, once a Microsoft account has been linked to a PlayStation account, neither the Microsoft account nor the PlayStation Network account can be associated with a different account.

If you choose to unlink accounts, then purchases will be returned to the account which made the purchase. Even after unlinking, Microsoft and PlayStation accounts can only be re-linked to the original account. It cannot be unlinked without loss of access to entitlements and Minecoins on other platforms.

What you can do instead is to create a new PSN account where you could link your new Minecraft account.

Any update on how to unlink a Microsoft account

You cannot see on the Microsoft website if you linked your PSN account to it or not.

Have you ever played Minecraft on your or a friend's Playstation?

Or maybe have a friend ever played Minecraft on your Playstation?

I ask because maybe your Microsoft account is not linked to any PSN account, but the PSN account on your PS5 is already linked to other Microsoft account - which makes it impossible for you to sign in and link your current Microsoft account to it.

Hi, Ac1d,

Thank you for your contribution, and welcome to Xbox Community. It's my pleasure to help.

I understand you want to link your Microsoft account to your PS5. Sorry to hear that you're facing issues with linking your account. Have you linked your Microsoft account to Playstation account before?

The error normally indicates that your PS5 is already linked with a different Microsoft account or your Microsoft account is linked with another PSN.

Are you linking your account for Minecraft game?

Thank you!

So I'm linked into the Ps5 account? And I'm not trying link another Microsoft account to my ps4, I'm trying to get into my Microsoft account that have my Email address linked to it.

I just don't understand why minecraft Microsoft account can't be unlinked? I'll have to pay for another minecraft Microsoft account if I can't get my original email address that I've veen using.
