Original Post — Direct link

Basically I have an old account on my iPhone which had lots of skins and when I got my PS5 account I had to make a new account for my console, so my question is can I unlink my console and link it to my old account and keep my old skins from my old account? Or will it just not transfer my old skins to my console account? Any info will help

It should be possible, however keep in mind that in that case you will lose access to the stuff that's on your new account.

When you say “new account” you mean my console account once I unlink my account (idc since I don’t have any skins) or my old mobile account?

Hmm interesting have you tried it before and if you have did you get the skin you had once on the other account? Sorry I just to make sure I won’t lose my skins once I link my old account since I read that some lose data or the skins idk if they meant as the account they had link before unlinking it?

I didn't do this personally, but I know rather well how account system works. What you're pretty much doing is removing an auth method from the new account and adding to old.

from:
old account A + Apple ID
new account B + PSN ID

to:
old account A + Apple ID + PSN ID
new account B

After this any progress and items you had on this account B will not be accessible on PlayStation, but Playstation will use progress and items on account A

To do this you first need to login on Epic website into the new account B using PSN. At this point you may be asked to add email, name and password for this account. Then you'll need to remove PSN connection to this account.

Then you need to login into your old account A on the website using Apple ID and add PSN connection. After that your Playstation will use old account.

If you'll be asked to provide an email for the old account, at least for gmail you can create aliases, e.g. if your email is email [at] gmail [dot] com, you can do email+any_text [at] gmail [dot] com and it will still go to your email [at] gmail [dot] com.
