Cross Save Account Merge

[(PSN)loveablepanda877]

So, I am a little nervous about doing this.  My PC account is eligible for the cross save link/merge, but my playstation, switch and xbox accounts are not.  I am concerned that by linking first with my PC account that will be the account that everything gets merged into.  Instead though, I want everything to be merged into my playstation account.  So, I guess, my question is should I wait to do cross save link/merge until they open playstation, xbox and switch accounts and link with playstation or is there a way to link all of the accounts then select playstation as my primary in the merge?

You should be able to login with your accounts to ''add'' them to your PC account, and then you'll be brought to a new page that lets you select any account as the primary (so you should be able to select your PS account)!

Thank you so much.  I am just so nervous seeing everyone else having problems with this.  I have put in a lot of time and effort into my PSN account and don't want to lose it.

Keep us posted take screenshots of your inventory FIRST BEFORE YOU LINK/Merge just in case

That is a good idea.  I wasn't planning on logging into my ps5, but I guess I should.  That is the one that I really care if I lose anything having some pretty good rivens and some mods I don't want to farm for again.

Same I haven’t played Warframe since they released New War but my PSN account still of course there with all my Warframe stuff and I need this merge/link to work with my Series S but I don’t know how DE is going about this cross platform save rollout. It seems to be the most oldest account(s) until they opened the gate for anybody that basically brought prime access which is really crazy in my opinion

Yeah, I was lucky that on my pc account I bought a prime access pack a few years ago.  I am also surprised I still know my login from my xbox and switch accounts.  Xbox I haven't touched in 7 years.

So that was actually pretty seamless.  I would recommend doing your pc account and the account you want to keep first.  Then merging any extras.  It let me choose between my pc and psn account for the primary.  Following that it showed my pc account as my primary still, but it showed all the same info as my psn previously.  Now time to test logging in.

Update:

I first logged in on my ps5, and I had everything from my other 3 accounts stacked in with my psn account.  I went from 4 forma to 54 and have 3 copies of regular banshee and 2 building of rhino.  I just logged in on my pc and everything I have on my ps5 is working perfectly on my pc too.  I will try my switch later, but based on this I am calling it a success.

When it took you to the screen to select a primary account, did it show like a "merge accounts?" Button??? 

 

I want to make my pc account my main and my ps4 account my secondary to merge.

What's going to happen if I merged my PSN account which is my (main account) that I used to play on to my other pc account that is far behind In quests and made my pc account my primary account ?

Yes, it showed a place for you to link and then if it was available to be merged it gave you the option on your very first time.  So make sure you do the first link/merge with the one you want as your main.

Your quest progress and star chart progress should carry over, but it might just be your items.  I merged all of my newer accounts to my older account that had everything done except for the new content that I hadn't touched on any account yet.
