Migrate Xbox Gamer tag to different Microsoft account

RebornPheonix15 · Sep 23, 2020

Hello, as the title suggests, I want to move my gamer tag to a different Microsoft account. It's associated with an old Microsoft account I created when I was like 10 and I no longer want it to be associated with it. I'd like to consolidate all of my Microsoft
services under one account. I've searched Google as well as the forums but it seems like every link involving this is dead now.

Let me clarify just so there is no confusion about this at all.

Main gamer tag is on dummy Microsoft account I don't use for anything

Main Microsoft account is associated with some randomly generated Gamer tag because Windows made me do it.

I want to delete the randomly generated Gamer tag, as it's not in use for anything at all, and move my main gamer tag off the dummy account.

Thanks!

P.S. I know the category for this isn't exactly correct, but I cant find a better category for it.

A bit disappointing. Thanks.

Hi RebornPheonix15.

Unfortunately it is not possible to merge account.

It's the same Microsoft account, but different gamer tag.

I am not sure how it happened. I already had a Microsoft account. When I got my xbox I created an account and got a gamer tag while setting up my xbox. I signed up for xbox live from my xbox using my existing gamer tag and Microsoft account. I then went
to xbox live and signed in using my Miicrosoft account, and for some reason when I did this a new gamer tag was created and associate to my Microsoft account. So, now when I log into xbox live I see one gamer tag. But on my xbox I have a different gamer
tag.

What do you mean? You can't transfer gamer tags to different Microsoft Accounts because your gamer tag IS your account.

If you mean getting your gamer tag on an Xbox One, you just sign in. It's simple, and easy, and one of the first things the Xbox One asks you to do when you turn it on for the first time.
