    Switch epic games ID and Xbox EG ID


    Hi all, really hope you can help. My son plays fortnite on switch, we’ve got him Xbox and trying to link account. I’ve got one epic games account and have both linked to it, but the switch has a different epic games ID to my account and the Xbox I’ve just linked. I get emails from the switch if I buy vbucks so it must be the same epic acc, but the fortnite acc on Xbox doesn’t have the same as the switch fortnite acc. Please help, thank you.

    :)

    How transfer Gametag to another Microsoft account without XBOX 360?

    I think from what you have said this is what you are looking for , try the steps below ..This should help you

    If you try to switch your Xbox LIVE gamertag to a Windows Live ID that is already linked to another gamertag, you will receive this message:

    “The Windows Live ID you’re switching to is already linked to another Xbox LIVE account. You must use another Windows Live ID.”

    Before you can switch your gamertag in this case, you must first remove the existing gamertag from that Windows Live ID account:

    1. Create a new Windows Live ID. You will only need this Windows Live ID as a temporary means of moving your gamertags. After the gamertags have been switched, you will no longer need this Windows Live ID.

    Example:

    Gamertag A is linked to Windows Live ID 1.

    Gamertag B is linked to Windows Live ID 2.

    Create a new Windows Live ID: Windows Live ID 3.

    2. Switch the gamertag that is linked to the Windows Live ID you want to use to the new temporary Windows Live ID you just created.

    Example:

    Gamertag A remains linked to Windows Live ID 1.

    Switch gamertag B to Windows Live ID 3.

    Windows Live ID 2 is now free.

    3. Switch your gamertag to the Windows Live ID you want to use.

    Example:

    Switch gamertag A to Windows Live ID 2.

    Gamertag B remains linked to Windows Live ID 3.

    Windows Live ID 1 is now free.

    4. To complete the swap of gamertags between the two original Windows Live ID accounts, you must wait 30 days. (A gamertag can be switched only once every 30 days.)

    Example:

    Gamertag A remains linked to Windows Live ID 2.

    After 30 days, switch gamertag B to Windows Live ID 1.

    Windows Live ID 3 is now free and no longer needed.
