Linking epic games account to sons new live account?

Hi there,

as far as I know there are options to disconnect an Epic account from an Xbox Live account and options to link an Epic account to an Xbox Live Account, so my assumption is that it could be possible.

See this link for steps in regards to both actions:

But I have Not tried this myself so I'm not sure and there might be a risks involved.

Go to the epic ganes account that you are going to unlink from Xbox and then connect the new Xbox account and that's if you don't talk to epic ganes support

If you want to transfer the Epic Games account to a new Gamertag, you can do that by going to the "Linked Accounts" page on Epic Games' website. This will keep all your Xbox content the same on your account, but the Epic Games account (used for Fortnite)
will be associated with his gamertag.

Here's how:

Open https://www.epicgames.com/store/en-US/

Sign in with the Epic account your son has been using (You can use the Xbox Live sign-in for your gamertag)

Go to "Account" (Click your username in the top right)

Go to "Connected Accounts"

Disconnect the Gamertag

Connect your son's new Gamertag

Again, this will simply unlink the Epic Games account (and all its purchased content) from YOUR gamertag and link it to his.

Hope this helps!

The purchases and battle pass are linked to your son's EPIC account.

So if you made a new EPIC account and linked the gamertag to that, of course no previous purchases are there.

You need to link your son's Xbox Gamertag account to the correct EPIC account with which you made the previous purchases.

BUT BEWARE!!! If you only used the console to link to an EPIC account WITHOUT making that first EPIC Account a

"full EPIC account" as described here, it might be that your purchases are now lost!!!

If you need help with that, you would have to contact the EPIC support from the link above using the "Contact us" button at the bottom of the page.

Hi there,

I'm afraid it's not possible to transfer games (and content) from one Xbox Live Account to another Xbox Live account.

An alternate option could be this:

- Setup a new account for your son and add him to the family, so your account can control your sons account via family restrictions.

- Set your sons Console as your accounts Home console, this will result in your sons account being able to play the games (and use subscriptions) purchased via your account

- Any game progress will be unavailable for your son's account. Accept for a few exceptions like with Fortnite, since any progress/content is linked to an Epic account and an Epic account can be moved and reconnected to a different Xbox Live account.
