Unlink your Xbox gamertag from EA through the EA Account it is currently connected to: open Account settings → Connected Accounts, choose Unlink beside Xbox, and follow the prompts. Check the warnings first—game progress does not transfer to another EA Account, and some content may remain with the original one.
Unlink your Xbox account from EA
- Sign in to the EA Account you believe is linked to your Xbox gamertag.
- Open EA Account settings and select Connected Accounts.
- Find the Xbox account and select Unlink.
- Read the on-screen warning. Continue only if you accept the effects on progress, content, and future linking.
- Complete any identity verification EA requests.
The unlink option is in EA Account settings; EA’s instructions do not provide an Xbox console-settings route for unlinking. You must be able to sign in to the EA Account to use the normal process.
What happens to progress and content?
Unlinking does not move game progress to another EA Account. EA also warns that entitlements such as in-game rewards, points, and items can remain on the EA Account that was first linked to the platform. If you want to use a different EA Account, do not assume that relinking will carry over your existing progress or purchases. See EA’s unlinking guidance before confirming.
Check whether you can link a different Xbox account
EA’s published guidance is not consistent on Xbox account switching. Its current unlinking article says linked accounts may be switched up to three times in a rolling year. However, EA’s platform unlinking page and Xbox linking page say that after unlinking an Xbox gamertag, a different Xbox gamertag cannot be linked to that EA Account.
