Coming back to ESO after 3 years

Chelister · October 2023

Hey all. I once played the game non stop, absolute loved it. Looking to come back to it and bring on some of my friends. For all this time my ESO account has been linked to my old PSN. Now I have a new PSN which I've been using for the past 3 years. How can I make the transfer of my ESO account from old PSN to new PSN? Do I unlink it, buy the game on new PSN and link it back again? Is it even possible to relink my ESO account from one PSN to another? Excited to hopefully come back into the game!

Because you need playstation plus to play games on PS5 and I haven't been using my old PSN for 3 years now.

I don't think you can do that, but I'm not sure about that.

I do know that you can make your new PSN the master of your PlayStation. And then share your PlayStation plus with your old PSN. In this way, you can use the PS plus to transfer any items that your old account has to your new one. Just play a bit on the old one first or maybe submit a ticket or something IDK so the game doesn't think you're being fraudulent

i dont know if this would work, but wouldnt you just be able to go to the ESO account management site to log into the eso acct, unlink the old PS acct, then link the new PS acct?

as far as im aware all of the ESO account stuff is stored with the ESO acct and you just need to link the eso acct to the 3rd party acct

Greetings,

After further review we have decided to move this thread to a category we think is more appropriate for this topic.

Thank you for your understanding.

Apparently it gives me error when trying to link a new PSN account and I read that you can't do it, as it would mean transfer of all game related achievements from one PSN to another, which is not possible. Will email support ticket

Also, on my old ESO account I was playing on the EU servers. Now, I live in the US. So, the question here is if I can swap my old PSN to the new PSN and transfer from EU to US.

Please see the following FAQs for details regarding unlinking an ESO account.

Is it possible to transfer my account to a different gamertag and keep my characters?
