Why do I have to re-link my Microsoft account, Minecraft on ps5?

all account linking happens on Sony's system, so you would have to contact their support about why the link isn't staying permanent. Just word of advice, Sony only allows you to ever link one Microsoft account to your Sony account, once that's done, you may never change the account that has been linked under their current policies

Thanks, I'll take my question to them.

So I'm linked into the Ps5 account? And I'm not trying link another Microsoft account to my ps4, I'm trying to get into my Microsoft account that have my Email address linked to it.

I just don't understand why minecraft Microsoft account can't be unlinked? I'll have to pay for another minecraft Microsoft account if I can't get my original email address that I've veen using.

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)

Hi, Ac1d,

Thank you for your contribution, and welcome to Xbox Community. It's my pleasure to help.

I understand you want to link your Microsoft account to your PS5. Sorry to hear that you're facing issues with linking your account. Have you linked your Microsoft account to Playstation account before?

The error normally indicates that your PS5 is already linked with a different Microsoft account or your Microsoft account is linked with another PSN.

Are you linking your account for Minecraft game?

Thank you!
