I lost all my cosmetics on fortnite after changing my xbox name and epic wont help.

Hello Taden S! I'm Kris and I'd be happy to help you with your question.

Sorry to hear this has happened. As the cosmetics are on Fortnite, Epic are the ones that would have to help.

Hello Dubster,

There is no way to change this as that is the name used on the game through Xbox. On your epic account you can have a username also. The only way to change the name you are wanting is to do a gamer tag change. This link may help you from fortnite forums.

Hi there

On fortnite the name can be set as the epic account names. I would suggest checking your epic account name and seeing about changing it to match there.

I thought that whatever your xbox GT is, that's what you have to have as your Fortnite display name. My GT was "CrazyGamer1213" and my display name was also that. However my epic name is "AKAsyk." I obviously made my GT when I was younger so it's a bit cringe.
So when I changed my GT to "KARMA," I expected the in-game display name to change- it didn't. Also when I click my home button it says my new GT right, but doesn't in fornite...

Hi there! This is Virginia O.

I understand that you are experiencing issues with your display name on Fortnite.

I apologize for the inconvenienced this has caused you. I will do my best to help you.

To set your expectations properly, your in-game display name may be different depending on the console platform you're playing on.

Fortnite displays your Epic Games username in most cases, not your Xbox gamertag. Even though you’ve updated your gamertag, if it’s not syncing with Fortnite, the display name issue is likely linked to your Epic Games account rather than Xbox.

Please verify Epic games account changes by logging into the Epic games account settings and double-check that the username change was successful.

If your updated Epic Games username is displayed there, it confirms the change is registered on their end.

And it can take up to a few days for changes to Epic Games usernames to propagate across all servers.

Thank you for your cooperation.

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:

since skins etc is linked to the epic account and not the Xbox Live Account itself.
