Community ManagerHi TheMajeste,
Can I double-check I understand what's happening? Are you trying to unlink one Steam account in order to link a new Steam account to the same EA account?

Yes thats what I am trying to do.

Hi TheMajeste,
Gotcha, thanks for confirming that. It really helps me make sure I can share specific advice to help you with this. 😄
Here's what you need to know:
- ✔️ You can unlink your Steam account BUT...
- ❌ You CAN'T link a new Steam account in its place
EA accounts can only have one Steam linked up in their lifetime.
When you link accounts, it creates a lifetime link to protect you from malicious activity and help prevent performance issues in your games. - EA Help: 'Unlink your platform accounts from your EA Account'
Depending on your goal, you may have other options besides unlinking available. Could you please share a bit more? For example, are you looking to unlink the old Steam account because it was compromised and you want to start fresh?
Once I understand the why, I'll do my best to share tips to help.
Thanks,
- EA_Lanna
My currently linked account is my old Steam account. I created a new Steam account about a year ago, and I’ve been using that one since. I accidentally linked my old Steam account to my EA account, so I need help with this.
