I can see why noone can help - because it is hard to understand what your problem is.
I still dont have a clue what it is that doesnt work other than the game asking you to link your account again.
Can you not do this?
What happens when you do?
Are you sure you are using the same PSN account to play the game?

Maybe provide a screenshot of the error.

yea Sony told me to contact Microsoft.microsoft told me to contact sony.i feel like i got ripped off
So you said many times. What you've not done is actually said what the issue actually is or what steps you've taken to remedy it.

For example:

There's about a dozen questions remaining here, and you're not letting anyone help you because you're not providing the information - such as "have you tried visiting the link you're provided, and what happens when you do", and "are you trying to play on the same actual PlayStation account or not" - but have somehow leapt straight to "scam".
I can definitely say that you absolutely have not tried unlinking the accounts because there is not a way to do this - it is a one-time, permanent association - so replying that you have is... weird.

Again, you are not letting anyone help you. You just seem to want to rant.

If you want help, this is the place to get it. If all you want to do is rant about how bad and evil and scammy it is, find somewhere else.

i can't be more clear.it exatly whats happening and yes i want help.nobodys giving me help what more info do you pople want
 
Have you tried visiting the link you're provided, and what happens when you do?
YES. IT MAKES ME SETUP A NEW ACCUONT and then said there alredy account linked to ps5
This is what I mean about you not letting people help you. Your answer isn't directly true (like the unlinking answer; unlinking isn't possible so your "yea" in response is not actually true) and is just asserted as a finality. In all-caps, no less.

If you visit the link - https://www.microsoft.com/link - all that it does is prompt you to enter the code you were given. It doesn't make you set up a new account, or tell you anything about accounts being linked. It's literally just a code entry screen. That tells me you either haven't done it at all or you've run right through to the conclusion past several different options without informing anyone of the intermediate steps that are needed to help you.


I just started the game on a brand-new account.

The first thing that happens is I get the "Microsoft Account Login" prompt that gives me the choice of "Link Accounts" or "Cancel".

Selecting "Link Accounts" gives me the "Sign In With Your Microsoft Account" screen, which gives the options of scanning the QR Code or visiting the link on a different device and entering an eight-digit code. I won't share this screen as it has a QR Code and access code on it which can be used to compromise your account - but you know what it looks like because you did actually share it...

Visiting the link takes me to the code entry page.

Entering the code subsequently takes me to a Microsoft sign in page where you can sign into your account or create a new one. Of course I have already got my one-and-only MS account linked to my previous PSNID, so I select "Create an account".

After going through the palaver required to do that - enter email, enter code sent via email, setup a gamertag etc - it completed and the PS5 updated to the Confirm Account Linking page, and when confirmed it progressed into the game setup.

Now you do it, but at the Microsoft sign in page sign into your existing account and then actually share the results instead of blasting right through to IT DIDN'T WORK AND THIS GAME IS A SCAM.
 
So... I went through all of that to help you, despite my misgivings, and you just ignored it?

There is no way this is a genuine complaint/issue. Find somewhere else to rant about it.
