Log in not working for Minecraft on ps5. Says I already have a linked account?

Hi, my name is , I'm an Independent Consultant and a member of the Xbox community like you.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to unlink the account via the Microsoft once it has been linked;

In this case, I recommend that you contact PlayStation Support to ask which Microsoft account your PS account is linked to, as only they have this information and see if they can help;

I appreciate your patience, if you have more questions feel free to ask.

Hi, yes it does. It shows the new gamertag. However, when I try to log in to Minecraft on the PS5 it says I already have an account linked, showing my previous gamertag.

Hi Josef, I’m having the same issue however this is the first time I’ve got minecraft on any PlayStation, I’ve tried logging in to Minecraft on PS5 and it gives me the same message, there is only my account on my PS5 yet it says my Microsoft account is already linked to another PSN account, I do not have minecraft on PS4. I attempted to use a different Microsoft account but all I got was a signing in screen for 10 minutes so gave up.

(Edit: just installed minecraft on my ps4 with the same PSN account and also says the Microsoft account is linked to a different PSN account but Nintendo switch works fine so seems to be an issue with PlayStation minecraft)

Any update on how to unlink a Microsoft account

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!
