I’d like to suggest a new account feature that could solve many of the issues players face with having multiple Fortnite accounts.
My idea is a “Secondary Linked Account” system, similar to gamesharing on Xbox/PlayStation. The idea is:
-
A player selects one account as their main account
-
They can then link a secondary account that is also theirs
-
The secondary account would share access to the main account’s cosmetics and items
-
Items, purchases, and progression still stay on the main account’s inventory
-
No items are merged, transferred, or duplicated
-
The secondary account simply has permission to use the same locker
This system would help players who have an older “OG” account and a newer account with purchases. It provides the benefits of account merging without the abuse, security risks, or technical problems that caused merging to be removed.
This would allow players to keep both accounts secure and separate while still enjoying their full cosmetic library across both.
