Hi, my name is , I'm an Independent Consultant and a member of the Xbox community like you. I'm sorry for the problem you're having.

If you are having problems with Minecraft, I recommend that you contact Minecraft support, they can help better with problems related to the game;

No I can’t play on ps5 with the account I did when I was younger. I did a Microsoft account on pc or Xbox but now I play on PlayStation. Can I change it?

Hi Ollyallen! My name is Stephanie and I'm more than happy to help you out!

According to Ricardo and Darhyl, who are Independent Advisors, https://answers.microsoft.com/thread/e7d393c9-8c54-477e-9f2e-dfef062fc5e2

"This message means that you are using a different Microsoft account to log in to the game on your PSN account, you can't use a different account, just the one that was linked the first time

On occasion, users have the idea that they are using the correct account because could be pretty similar than the one they previously used but if you get that error message means it's not the same account.

The only best option is to try to contact Mojang to see if they can tell you which Microsoft account was linked to your PSN account. You can reach out to them through this link:

I'm sorry for being indirect.

Let me reiterate one last time.

I'm trying to access the "Realms" part of Minecraft on the Playstation 5. For that you need either a Mojang account or a Microsoft account.

I tired using a Microsoft account to login to it but it only takes me to a Xbox website while I'm trying to sign in on Playstation.

That's the problem and I'm seeing if maybe it's a glitch or something like that.

In this case, your Playstation account is already linked to another Microsoft account. You would need to find out what Microsoft account it is and sign in with it. Once you link a Microsoft account to a Playstation account, neither the Microsoft nor the Playstation account can be linked to another Microsoft/PSN account.
