Minecraft needs to let you unlink accounts

Daniel b-m · Mar 12, 2025

I created a Microsoft account to play Minecraft a couple years ago, I wanted to change my name but didn’t know how so I just created a new account under the same email, but now every time I try to log in it tells me that my Minecraft is already linked to another Microsoft account, and by the looks of it there’s nothing I can do

You may need to ask them how to unlink your Minecraft account to your Nintendo account.

That will be on Mojang's end, Microsoft does not have the capability to unlink an in-game account.

I have no idea how to do this i really need help and i dont know the email and i cannot create a new Minecraft account without unlinking the old one.

Unfortunately even if you could unlink the Microsoft account, Sony will not let you link a different/new Microsoft account to your PSN. Sony will only let you relink the original Microsoft account that was first linked.
