Can I Link My Fortnite Account to 2 Different Consoles?
You can link your Fortnite account to multiple consoles, including Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, and Mobile, as long as each console is linked to the same Epic Games account. This allows you to access your purchased content and progress across all platforms, with the exception of V-Bucks, which are non-transferable.
Understanding Cross-Platform Compatibility
To take advantage of cross-platform play and account linking, you need to create an Epic Games account and link it to your console or platform accounts. This enables you to share progress and content across different devices, making it convenient to play with friends or switch between platforms.
