cross-progression

I asked this question in Japanese before.
Cross-progression is taking place in Apex, and on 11/29 my PC version of Apex also had a screen that said "Cross-progression is now available". However, after more than a week, no cross progression has been made. Also, the PS4 version of Apex that was linked was merged with the PC version, but the data from the PS4 Apex was completely gone, as if it had been overwritten and saved.
How can I successfully cross-progress and get my skins, coins and data back? Please respond.

    Hey @arot-wasser,

    It looks like your PS4 account was previously linked to a different EA account.

    Progress is stored on the EA account, not the individual platforms like PS4. When you moved your PS4 to the current EA account, all its progress was left on the older EA account.

    Progress cannot be transferred from one EA account to another, so if you're trying to recover your PS4 progress you will need to re-link your PS4 to the original EA account as outlined in the steps below.

    If you're unable to re-link your accounts, you will need to speak with our support team.

  • I heard this question before in Japanese, Apex Cross Progression showed the "Cross Progression is now available" screen on 11/29, but I waited a week and nothing changed. Also, nothing changed on the PC version, the data from the PS4 version that was supposed to be integrated disappeared and was overwritten with data from the PC version. How can I get my data, skins and money back?

  • Thanks for your reply.
    What should I do if the linked PS4 account is an Apex account that I want integrated with my PC account?
    In this case, should I wait until it is integrated since it is not the previous wrongly linked account?
