    I have lost my Fortnite account after linking it with Epic Games, and I don't know how to...


    What I believe has happened is that when I linked my account with Epic Games it had created a new account to replace my old account. I had tried to get my old account by unlinking from Epic Games but unfortunately that has given me another new account and not my old one. Is there a way I can get my old account back? Or can I get some sort of refund (I have only spent around 40-50 dollars on this game).

    :)

    I have lost my Fortnite account after linking it with Epic Games, and I don't know how to get it back.

    Hi there! My name is Darhyl and I’d be more than happy to help you with your query.

    I'm sorry you are experiencing this with your Fortnite account.

    I'm afraid Microsoft Xbox does not have the tools to manage any 3rd party accounts.

    It would be best to reach out directly to Epic Games Support for further assistance as they have the tools and resources to properly investigate your Fortnite account:

    hello i lost all my skin objects ect on fortnite how to recover

    Response:

    Hi there,

    please double check if you unlinked the epic account, if you have done so you'll need to relink it again.

    See this link for a similar situation:
    https://www.epicgames.com/fortnite/forums/bug-reports/battle-royale-aa/258560-3-4-0-lost-all-skins-and-all-progress
    For any further support regarding to fortnite skins etc. it's best to post that issue on the fortnite forums via that same link,
    since skins etc is linked to the epic account and not the Xbox Live Account itself.

    XBox One S - Parent/Child Account Issue

    Hi there,

    I'm afraid that both, making your account a child account and transferring the points (I assume the gamer score) are not possible.

    There is one thing that as far as I know that can be done though which is related to Fortnite. Fortnite uses a separate account to store it's progress and skins etc, this account used for that is the Epic account. This account can be unlinked and linked
    to another Xbox Live Account.

    So for Fortnite nothing specific like Skins etc to that game wouldn't be lost. For the specific steps on how to move the Epic account it's best to check out this link:
