For what account did you receive the prompt?
The newly linked account should be able to access the content from your other platforms once it rolls out on that account, but your old progress is pretty much guaranteed to be lost.
If you got the cross progression prompt on EA Account 2 and not on EA Account 1 then you'll still have to wait until you receive the prompt on that account if you want to be able to access your Xbox content on Steam.

Ok so i received the prompt on account 2 and what you're saying is that i'll still get cross progression on account 1 to be able to link with Xbox on steam then? with account 2 content lost on steam also right?

But thank you for the help :D

Yes that's correct.

So when your platform accounts merge on account 2, you'll have your Xbox content on Steam whilst also losing the progress you previously had on Steam.

    I had the same situation only swapped accounts. I got the cross progression message on my PC account but nothing happened. After looking at where my Xbox account was linked it was the wrong account. a profile I've used maybe twice. So I unlinked from the wrong account and linked to the correct one. No change on my PC account though. Do I have to wait for the message to appear again? Is it going to appear again?
