Update Notice: Bungie.net Account Unlinking Update on March 25, 2025

Hello all, Earlier today, Bungie published some updates regarding Platform Account Unlinking and some changes that are happening starting March 25th, 2025. Please see the following : [quote]We have an important update regarding account linking on Bungie.net. For a time now, we have allowed players to link multiple authentication methods to a single Bungie.net profile. We will continue to allow linking accounts in this manner, but we are taking away the option to unlink an account once it's been linked to your Bungie ID. The only exception will be Twitch. We are targeting March 25, 2025, to make these changes. Players will only have until this date to swap out and/or unlink platform accounts they do not want connected to their Bungie.net account. Our goal is to protect the integrity of our players' accounts, simplify certain security systems, prevent fraud, and limit activities that go against our Terms of Service.[/quote] [b]Full article here :[/b][url]https://help.bungie.net/hc/en-us/articles/35597981889300-Notice-Bungie-net-Account-Unlinking-Update-on-March-25-2025[/url] ---- [b]ADDITIONAL ITEMS[/b] - [u][b]Unlinking Platform Accounts[/b] is not the same as [b]Disabling Cross Save for Destiny 2[/b][/u]; these are two separate processes. While yes, Cross Save for Destiny 2 does rely on Linked Platform Accounts for authentication, they are fundamentally/systematically different -- there are many Bungie.net accounts that do not use Cross Save for Destiny 2. For guidance on Disabling Cross Save [url=https://help.bungie.net/hc/en-us/articles/360049498031-Destiny-2-Cross-Save-Guide]that can be found here.[/url] - Players have until March 25th, 2025 to [b]unlink platform accounts[/b] (not disabling cross save) and make adjustments as necessary. - Starting March 25th, you will still be able to Disable Cross Save on your Bungie Account and choose a different character save as per the [i]Standard Cross Save Policies[/i], however you will not be able to change out the underlying Platform Accounts with your Bungie ID with this change going into effect. - For the full guide of [url=https://help.bungie.net/hc/en-us/articles/360048716612-Bungie-net-Profile-Account-Creation-Linking-and-Recovery]Account Linking/Unlinking you can see here[/url] ---- [b]LINKING SCENARIOS [/b] [quote][quote][b]SCENARIO 1:[/b] [u]If you are using Cross Save for Destiny 2[/u] [b]AND[/b] would like to [u]change your linked platform accounts[/u] [b]AND THEN[/b] [u]re-activate Cross Save[/u] on Bungie.net before the 3/25/25 deadline, you must meet the following conditions :[/quote] [quote][b]1. Turned off Cross Save on or before 12/24/24 [/b]-- You also subsequently need to verify and make sure you have access to all platform accounts linked to your bungie.net account in order even Disable Cross Save at all. [b]2. Did not buy Silver after 9/24/24[/b] - Buying Silver has a refreshable 90 day lockout timer on Disabling Cross Save. This date here is the last possible day to still meet the March deadline. If the above mentions are true for you, then you would have from now until the 25th of March to make the necessary changes. Your individual deadline may vary depending on the exact date you meet those conditions of since these actions are met with 90 day deadlines individually.[/quote][/quote] [quote][quote][b]SCENARIO 2:[/b] [u]If you already Disabled Cross Save for Destiny 2[/u] [b]AND [/b]are [u]awaiting your Cooldown Timer to "expire"[/u] with X amount of days left to [u]then re-enable Cross Save for Destiny 2[/u] and choose a different character save on your existing bungie.net profile: [/quote] [quote]- [b]You have from now until 3/25/25 to remove any Platform Account Links from your Bungie.net Profile following the guidance listed[/b] [url=https://help.bungie.net/hc/en-us/articles/35597981889300-Notice-Bungie-net-Account-Unlinking-Update-on-March-25-2025?_ga=2.63853868.243206431.1742051884-1317316823.1716203901]here[/url], under "Removing or Unlinking an Authentication Method". - [b]Even if your timer to re-enable Cross Save falls after 3/25/25, that's fine.[/b] You will just be able to play Destiny 2 on your original save platform until then. - [b]Just make sure that any open "slots" for Platform Accounts are open prior to 3/25/25[/b] in this scenario.[/quote][/quote] [quote][quote][b]SCENARIO 3 :[/b] [u]You do not use Cross Save at all[/u] in Destiny 2 and just want to change the linked Platform Accounts on your bungie.net Profile[/quote] [quote]- You would follow the guidance [url=https://help.bungie.net/hc/en-us/articles/35597981889300-Notice-Bungie-net-Account-Unlinking-Update-on-March-25-2025?_ga=2.126885134.243206431.1742051884-1317316823.1716203901]listed here[/url] under [b]"Removing or Unlinking an Authentication Method"[/b] to remove the Platform Account you want removed. - [b]There is no timer or cooldown to remove Platform Account when Cross Save for Destiny 2 is not active on your Bungie.net Account[/b].[/quote][/quote] [quote][quote][b]SCENARIO 4 :[/b] [u]You purchased Silver on your Destiny 2 account[/u] [b]WITH [/b]Cross Save Active [b]AND[/b] [u]want to change out your linked platform accounts[/u] prior to 3/25/25.[/quote] [quote]-[b] If you purchased Silver on or prior to 9/24/24[/b], you would then had to have [u]already Disabled Cross Save[/u] for Destiny 2 entirely by 12/24/24 to have 1 day (on 3/24/25) to unlink any platform accounts before 3/25/25. - [b]If you purchased Silver on your Destiny 2 Account AFTER 9/24/24 through current[/b], unfortunately there is not enough time on the cooldown timer to meet the 3/25/25 deadline since [u]purchasing Silver has a refreshable 90 day cooldown each time you purchase Silver[/u] and you will not be able to change out your linked platform accounts. Your only options here are : - A) Continue using your existing account setup as is [b]OR [/b] - B) Start an entirely new fresh Bungie.net account with new platform accounts[/quote][/quote] Feel free to drop questions and we'll try to answer them as best we can.
