Minecraft Playstation Link Problem

Dear Gavin Milligan

Thanks for using Microsoft products and posting in the Community.

For your description of your problem with linking Microsoft accounts on Sony's Playstation reporting an error, have you played minecraft on the Playstation before or linked another account, if so, you can follow your method below:

Even if you can unlink the account, Sony won't allow you to link other Microsoft accounts later: How to Link Microsoft and PlayStation Accounts.

How to Link Your Microsoft Account to Minecraft on PlayStation | Minecraft Help

Note: After you link a Microsoft account to a PlayStation® account, neither the Microsoft account nor the PlayStation™ Network account can be linked to another account.



If you choose to unlink an account, the purchase transaction will be returned to the account from which the purchase was made. Even if unlinked, Microsoft and PlayStation® accounts can only be re-associated to the original account.



Again, this is a Sony restriction. It is not a restriction imposed by Microsoft/Minecraft.Looking forward to your reply.

Best wishes

Hi, Hunter Ness.

Thank you for posting in the Microsoft Community.

From your description, I understand that you are told that you are already logged in to another account when trying to log in to Minecraft on PS4. I understand your confusion about this problem.

This may be a service problem of ps4. You can try the following methods to solve your problem:

Even if you can unlink the account, Sony will not allow you to link another Microsoft account afterwards:

How to Link Your Microsoft Account to Minecraft on PlayStation | Minecraft Help

Note: After linking a Microsoft account to a PlayStation® account, neither the Microsoft account nor the PlayStation™ Network account can be linked to other accounts. Even if you unlink, the Microsoft and PlayStation® accounts can only be relinked to the original accounts. Again, this is a Sony restriction. It is not a limitation imposed by Microsoft/Minecraft.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Best Regards.
