Why do I have to create an account when I try to log into epic games using my Xbox1...

Whenever I try to login to my Epic Games account normally on the Epic Games website, the website redirects me (whenever I press sign in) to a page that forces me to make a new account. I have tried contacting Epic, but to do that, I need to log in, and for some reason, I cannot log in because whenever I try to login, the website redirects me to a page that forces me to create a new Epic Games account. I haven't found any solution to this problem yet, so hopefully posting it on here will give me some answers.(NOTE: I do not use an Xbox, I am just having trouble with this issue on the Epic Games website)

How to link epic games

Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

My name is welcome to the community.

Hello Tytytuxedo153, on your console you log in with your Microsoft account and play Fortnite normally, but when you log in on the PC you have to log in with the email that opened an account at Epic Games.

If you used the same Microsoft email on Epic, you won't have any problems, but if you used a different email to create your Epic account, you'll need to know what that email is.

How do I unlink my xbox account from Epic Games so I can link my epic games account to my xbox correctly? Error message is "Sorry your xbl account has already been associated with another Epic Games account"

I have gone to the Epic Games website, logged in using the Xbox link, used my xbl credentials, and it logs me in. However, under Accounts/Connections Xbox is not connected. When I click on connect, I get the message that this xbl account is associated
to another account. It's a never ending circle.

we will treat this as two seperate accounts.

son 1 has an epic account, this is usually created automatically when you sign in to an epic games title.

son 2 should have an account auto created when logging into an epic games account, if you dont know the login details for this then head over to epic games website and log in, select the xbox logo and sign in with the xbox live account for son 2 and follow
the instructions.

if all else fails contact epic games.

you dont need 2 lots of gold.

I am a little confused by your response. when you say "he" do you mean the older child or the younger child. My older son who was "Helping" does not have an epic account and only played it on the Xbox. when I attempt to log into the epic site under his
Xbox account it tells me to create an epic account.
