You can now merge two Fortnite accounts together in order to transfer Fortnite Cosmetic Items and V-bucks from one account to another.
Of the two accounts you want to merge, you must choose a primary and a secondary account. The primary account will be the main account you play on, and the secondary account is a console login that will be merged and disabled. After two weeks of linking a secondary account to your primary account, items and currency will be transferred.
Here’s how it works directly from the Epic Games website:
HOW IT WORKS
You’ll choose two accounts, first a Primary Account that you wish to continue using. Then you’ll choose a Secondary Accountto merge and disable. Your secondary accounts Console Login (e.g. PSN, Xbox Live, Nintendo Online) will be instantly linked to your Primary Account. Two weeks later your Fortnite Cosmetic Items and V-Bucks will be transferred to your Primary Account.
IMPORTANT INFO
- One account must have played on Xbox One or Switch and the other on PS4 before September 28th 2018 to be eligible.
- Your account must not currently be banned or disabled.
- In-game items and Vbucks will be held for two weeks before they’re merged to your primary account.
- You’ll need access to all email addresses that are associated with accounts you wish to merge
- If you have duplicate 3rd party login like Facebook on both your Primary and Secondary account, the Secondary login will be unlinked. You can unlink it prior to merging.
- Battle Royale will allow you to merge all cosmetic items. Save the World will allow you to merge Llamas, Defenders, Heroes, Schematics, Survivors, XP, Evolution and Perk Materials.
- Other Items such as Unreal Marketplace items, Creative Islands, and Save The World account level and progress will not be merged over from your secondary account
