Log in on PS5 with PC account

I've bought the EA on PC, but would like to also play on PS5. I use this at my GF's house and also like to use the PS remote feature at times for easy access to the game when on the move. This is also how I play D4.

I have bought the PS5 EA as well. I don't mind paying twice, that's just how it is. But I have two questions:

1. But how do I make sure I log into my account on PS5? There is no login, I just have a "Press X to Play" with no account details. How do I link my PoE/PSN accounts?

2. Will I get 300 points twice as well on my account?

Thanks! Hope somebody knows more about this.

Edit: I did link/merge the two accounts now, but it did not transfer the 300 points. I guess that is more of a support thing.

Sony has no transfer of mtx sadly. You will need to buy mtx seperate for your PSN Account.
Really wish someone would post the actual details on how to merge both accounts and yes I paid for both. Can’t believe I have wasted 3 hours today trying to find this simple but out of the world hidden secret to merge my PS5 and Steam accounts.

You can't really merge them, they are sub-accounts, and particularly on Playstation since there's no crossover of mtx they have to remain as separate sub-accounts. This means your mtx on PC/Steam will stay on that platform, and mtx on PS5 will stay on that platform.





That is unfortunate then, and I bought the PS5 version for nothing. Thought it would work the same as with D4, where you can just play the same chars on all platforms.

I'll see if Sony still gives me the money back, but generally they screw you over after you've downloaded it.

If you do try and refund it and get the chance to tell them why I hope you'll explain that not being able to use your account mtx on Playstation was not obvious (it's been a clusterf*** to be honest) and makes the option to play cross-progression POE2 on Playstation completely worthless :D
