If it’s been a while since you played an EA game, try logging into your EA Account from your computer or mobile device.

On the EA Help homepage, select the Log in/Sign up button. If you’re logging in from a mobile device, you can find the button by opening the menu icon (☰).

You might need to:

• Reset your password.
• Use one of your Login Verification codes to sign in to your account.

Once you've signed in restart your platform, and start your game.

If you still can’t log in to your EA Account, get in touch with us.

You should already have an EA Account if you’ve bought games from our store, or played an EA game online with your platform. 

1. Try logging in on ea.com to see if you're already signed up. If you aren’t sure what email to use, try the email address you use for your Nintendo, Google Stadia, PlayStation™Network, or Xbox account.
2. If you don’t remember your password, click Forgot Your Password? to reset it.
3. Check your email (including your spam/junk folders) for a link to reset your password.
   • If you get an email, congrats! You already have an EA Account linked to that email address. 
   • If you don’t get an email after 5–10 minutes, repeat these steps for any other email address you might have used instead.

Once you’re logged in, check your Connections in your Account settings to see your Connected Accounts. Any Xbox gamertags and PlayStation™Network Online IDs that are connected to your EA Account will show up here, but connected Nintendo Accounts won’t.

If you don’t have one, you can create an account.

• If you never played any EA games on a platform with that account, you can create a new account using your current email address.
• If you want to keep your old account but change the email address on it, you can update it. 
• Don't remember the email address you used for your account? Contact us for more help.
  

An EA Account can only have one of each platform account linked at a time. This means that you can’t link an EA Account to two PlayStation™Network IDs, for example. Instead, you’ll need to create a new EA Account to link an additional account.

If you try to link additional accounts, you’ll get a message that says Linked accounts found.

If you already have multiple platform accounts linked to an EA Account, they’ll stay linked, but you won’t be able to add more. We suggest choosing your preferred accounts when you link them together.

Sub-accounts that share Xbox Live Gold or PlayStation®Plus won’t be able to connect to EA Accounts to play online.

If you made your EA Account using the same email address you use for your platform-specific account, load any EA game on your Xbox, PlayStation®, or Switch, and your accounts should automatically connect.

Here’s what you can do:

• If your Xbox gamertag, PlayStation™Network Online ID, and/or Nintendo Account are linked to an EA Account you don’t use, you can update that account to get back in the game.
• If you made a second account with your primary email address, you can move the email to the account with your games.
• If you have multiple EA Accounts with games on them, one of our advisors may be able to help combine your accounts. You’ll need to be able to access both accounts, and not everything will transfer over, like game progress.
• You can also unlink your platform account from your EA Account and link it to a different EA Account, as long as that account has never had the same account type linked to it before in its lifetime.

Try resetting your EA Account password, and make sure that the platform you’re trying to use is connected to your EA Account. To see if they’re connected:

1. Go to the Connections tab in your EA Account.
2. Look under Connected Accounts. If your account isn’t connected, you’ll see a button that lets you Link your accounts from there.
