Hello I received the prompt but only play this game on PS4. If I were to play this game on PC, and use the same email account associated with my PSN would I see the cross progression and the same stats, badges, cosmetics, heirlooms transfer over to PC?

I think I hit decline on the cross platform prompt(cant recall) but I am just curious what would happen in this scenario?

You can’t decline Cross Progression as it’s mandatory, but you can choose to exit the game and not continue when prompted; this would mean you are not cross-progressed, but it also means that you're unable to play the game.

If you only play on one platform you would have just seen the “Cross Progression is Here” message. Clicking continue will have no impact on your Apex Legends experience on PS4. Your account would be cross-progressed. If you then link your Steam account to the same EA ID as your PS4, when you log in to Apex Legends on Steam you will be greeted with your cross-progressed account, which is the one you have previously played with on PS4. The content you call out will be available, except for certain badges earned on the non-primary account under specific circumstances. This topic is discussed elsewhere.

Me and my husband's xbox live accounts were linked to the same EA account, didn't realize it, has been that way since 2014. Our accounts on Apex are now merged, eliminating his, and now we can't play together. We haven't logged into apex in a couple of months, just did so yesterday, got the message, and cannot figure out how to fix it. We can't unlink either xbox live account, there isn't even an option to do it, however, pretty sure we'd lose our games if we did. I plan on contacting either EA or Apex support but they're contact center is closed down for the holidays. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

As you call out, the accounts have been merged as they were treated as being owned by the same account owner. You can unlink one of the Xbox accounts from the connections page (~https://myaccount.ea.com/cp-ui/connectaccounts/index~) for the EA account, BUT it will remove all progress from that account as you thought it might. Once one of the Xbox accounts has been unlinked, you can then link it to a different EA account so that they are separate which solves for being able to play together albeit with one account starting fresh.

Support will be able to help you regain access to your account. Please create a ticket on ~EA Help~ and let them know that you no longer have access to the email address for the account in question.

what do i do now?

Was your Steam account your primary account? If so, then you won't see any changes on Steam but rather on the other platforms attached. If you're encountering something different, please start a thread on ~Answers HQ~ with more details so that this can be investigated.

My brother and I had no idea that our EA accounts were linked together. We both have Xbox’s and we both play at the same time. Now since they did this Cross Progression me and my brother can’t play with each other. Is there anyway to unlink the accounts? We logged into EA and saw both accounts together but there’s no button to click to unlink the accounts. Would anyone be able to explain how to unlink the accounts? Even if 1 account loses everything that’s fine. We just don’t want to have to restart an Xbox gamer tag account.

The accounts have been merged as they were treated as being owned by the same account owner. You will be able to unlink one of the Xbox accounts from the connections page () for the EA account. Once one of the Xbox accounts has been unlinked, you will be able to link it to a different EA account and thus separating the accounts. As you noted, no progress will move over when you unlink it, but that does address your concern of having to create a new Xbox gamer tag.

As with a few others in this post, this would need a thread on ~Answers HQ~ detailing your situation to look into further. Please reach out so that the team can investigate.

My brother-in-law's PS account got banned once cross progression happened. EA's completely stonewalled him and won't answer any of his questions. He's never cheated before. I know everybody says that, but I also know false bans happen all the time. What's he supposed to do about it? Has this been happening as a result of the cross-progression implementation issues?

Edit: Should also mention he spent money on that account. Feels a lot like EA just stole from him. Any answers?

Accounts were not banned because of Cross Progression. Sounds like he may have already done so, but logging a support request is the correct path to have this looked into.

This sounds like two separate accounts that are not linked. Please start a thread on ~Answers HQ~ detailing your situation along with your support ticket # so that this can be looked into further.

We have also been looking into players impacted by other edge case issues as we appreciate that being part of something less widespread doesn’t make the fact you have an issue any better. Please know that we are still working hard on resolving any and all of these.

As someone who still doesn't have cross progression I assume for an edge case issue, please. Talked with two EA Help reps and one said cross progression doesn't exist (lie) and the other said it was "server issues" and I would get my content "once the server updates it". That was December 4th and still nothing so please, I would like to know if it can be resolved or not.

The easiest way to confirm whether you have received Cross Progression or not is to try logging in on a different platform with your EA ID. If you still believe you haven’t received Cross Progression after doing this, please start a thread on ~Answers HQ~ detailing your situation so that support can investigate.

I have a question that has probably been asked a ton of times, but any help would be appreciated. I played for about a year on PlayStation when the game first launched. I probably don’t have too many unlocks on that EA account. When I built my pc, I created a new EA account and connected steam to that account. I do not have a PlayStation account connected to my newer EA account and I still have access to the old EA login. What would happen if I go into my old EA, unlink my PlayStation account, and then link it into my new EA account that is also connected to steam? It’s probably not worth it because I don’t want to lose anything on my current account, but to have a couple of the early skins/camos I unlocked would be nice. Thoughts?

Unlinking the PlayStation account will remove access to any of the progress/content acquired on that account. You would, however, then be able to play on your PlayStation with your cross-progressed PC/Steam account. As you call out, you have two separate accounts here and the merging of multiple EA accounts was outside of the scope of Cross Progression.

Dive Trails earned in Seasons 1 and 2 are permanent. Your Cross Progressed account will have them.

Now that we have cross-platform enabled and can play on any platform while sharing progress but does it mean we can buy cosmetics or redeem codes on any platform or is purchasing locked to the primary account only?

All content purchased/unlocked on any of the platforms linked is available on the other platforms (apart from platform exclusive content). If you purchase new content on one platform it’s associated with your Cross Progressed account, and when you take that account to another platform it will be there.

The main caveat here is that Apex Coins purchased on the Nintendo Switch is stored in its own separate wallet and is not shared with the other platforms. That said, content purchased with these coins on Switch is still your content to take and play on other platforms.

Does this mean that if you now decide to link a platform account (a new one without any progress) to an EA account, that this account will receive the progress of the merged accounts... or will this platform account have it's own separate progress?

Once you link the new platform to the EA ID that is cross-progressed, this platform will then have access to the progress and content of the cross-progressed account. Worth noting and stressing that any content on this new platform getting linked in will be lost.

If the account is “a new one” then there's likely nothing to be lost, but if you link in a platform that does have content and/or progress associated with it (because it’s already linked to another EA ID), this WILL be lost in favor of the cross-progressed account’s stats and content. This goes back to the “Unlinking can disassociate progress and content” aspect called out previously.

We discussed missing badges in the above post. As for “other things,” please start a thread on ~Answers HQ~ with more details so that the support team can investigate further.

How do I link my xbox account and steam account for cross progression?

I've played the game a bit on steam. I reinstalled as I heard there was cross progression but i'm still on my level 5 account. How can I login to my main apex legends account on my steam account?

To access your Xbox progress on Steam, you need to make sure that your Xbox and Steam accounts are linked to the same EA account. First, you’ll want to find out which EA account your Xbox account is linked to. From there, make sure your Steam account is linked to the same EA account. You can manage your account connections ~here~. Once you have linked your Steam account to the same EA ID, you will then be able to access your content from Steam. It’s important that you do not unlink your Xbox account from the EA ID that it is currently linked to since the progress will not move between EA IDs
