   Xbox account not linking to Epic Games

   I made an Epic Games account with my Xbox Account when I first wanted to play Rocket League. I wanted to sign into PC with this Xbox Account on the Epic Games store, but it gives me an error message that they couldn't find my credentials. I contacted Epic Games support and after we tried all the usual fixes, they advised to contact Xbox. After this, I made a seperate Epic Games account and tried to link my Xbox to the new account but this also failed.

   Oddly enough, when I try to link my Twitch and Reddit Account to my Xbox, they tell me to login, but both in the end fail.

   I think something is wrong with linking accounts to my Xbox account, but I somehow have linked my Discord to my Xbox.

   Please help

   :)

   Hey ReyGarcia!

   In order to link your Xbox Live account with your Epic Games account, go to the Epic Games website and sign in with your Fortnite account for mobile. Then, go to your account settings
   and click on linked accounts. There, you can link your Xbox Live account to your Epic Games account. Please reply to this if that dosen't work and we will get right back to you!

   Sincerely,

   Moving V-Bucks and Challenge Packs to another account

   Hi there,

   there is no option to move items etc from one Xbox Live Account to another, but since it's Fortnite related, there might be an alternate solution.

   I think the content for Fortnite is linked to the Fortnite account (Epic account) and that can be linked to a different Xbox Live Account.

   For example this link shows how to connect a Epic Account to a console account (via the website):
   
   https://epicgames.helpshift.com/a/epic-accounts/?s=epic-accounts&f=how-do-i-link-my-console-account-to-my-epic-games-account-using-the-web&p=all

   Keep in mind to not use the Xbox Live Accounts or Epic Accounts when on a console, since this could result in a new Epic Account being created.

   I do advise you to contact Epic Support first so they can confirm the steps to take to make this possible before trying something. The earlier mentioned link has a Contact options.

   Best way to move X-Box account to a different Microsoft Account

   you cant change xbox accounts linked to epic, epic changed this early last year, once an xbox account is linked to epic then thats it, it can be unlinked but cannot have a different xbox account linked to that epic account, they did this to stop people getting around bans and keeping all their stuff.
