Minecraft ps5 issue

Hello Dear User

Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

I understand that you are having trouble on Minecraft on PS5, and I understand your confusion.

Based on your situation, I want to clarify that even if you can unlink the account, Sony will not allow you to link another Microsoft account afterwards:

How to Link Microsoft and PlayStation Accounts in Minecraft | Minecraft Help

Note: Once you link your Microsoft account to your PlayStation® account, neither the Microsoft account nor the PlayStation™ Network account can be linked to other accounts.

If you choose to unlink your accounts, purchases will be refunded to the account that made the purchase. Even if unlinked, Microsoft and PlayStation® accounts can only be relinked to the original account.

Again, this is a Sony limitation. It is not a limitation imposed by Microsoft/Minecraft.

Regarding the emails you lost access to, depending on the specific situation of your account, you can try to recover this account, such as filling out the recovery form.

Please feel free to let me know if you have any further updates, thanks. 

Best Regards.

Hi John breadstick



Thanks for reporting this issue in Microsoft Answers.



I understand that you are having trouble with the invite button not showing up on Minecraft for PS5, and I understand your confusion.

To resolve the issue of the invite button not showing up on Minecraft for PS5, you can try the following steps:

1. Ensure that both your PS5 and Minecraft game are up to date.
   
2. Try closing the game and restarting your PS5.
   
3. Try logging out and logging back into your PSN account.
   

If these steps do not resolve the issue, I sincerely recommend contacting Minecraft support and PlayStation support for further assistance.

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)
