Cross Progression: I have 2 EA Accounts. What do I do?
I have two seperate EA Accounts, Playstation and Steam. I have tried to link my Playstation account with my PC account in the past but lost everything except stats so I got in touch with EA Live Chat and they helped me revert it. Cross Progression states that it will link accounts under the one EA ID. What would be the best way to do this going forward? I do not want to lose anything and make the same mistake I made before.
Obviously you're wondering why I have two accounts in the first place. This is the result of the terrible Origin platform that was in place previously, not to mention I never actually created any EA account myself on Console, it just automatically created it years ago. I understand my situation is niche but just wondering if anybody is in the same boat?
Many thanks,
P.S The Playstation account is my main account with everything
TLDR:
Two seperate accounts
Tried to merge before but lost everything
What do
Hey @ManInTheBox404,
While you'd be able to unlink one platform and try re-linking it to the same EA account, as you mentioned this will cause a loss in progress.
The progress and cosmetics you've unlocked are stored on the EA account, so if you have two separate EA accounts and a different platform on each, there won't be a way to combine that progress I'm afraid. One of those will be lost depending on which platform you unlink (if any).
If you're wanting to make use of Cross Progression on these accounts going forward, you will need to move one platform or the other to the same EA account. That won't bring content from your second EA account, but you would have access to your main EA account content on both platforms from that point forward.
