Account Cross-Progression Q&A
AnnouncementsThe logic for cross-progression is: link multiple platform accounts together, so you can log in from any platform account and use the same character to play.
Basic Concepts
An account is the string you use to log in to the game, usually together with a password. Most platforms now offer easy login: you don't need to re-enter your account and password every time, the platform will log you in automatically using your previous record.
After logging in, you use your character to play the game. All rank, progress, collections, and paid content are stored on your character.
How Our Cross-Progression Works
The logic for cross-progression is: link multiple platform accounts together, so you can log in from any platform account and use the same character to play.
Each account is linked to one character, and you can only play using that character after logging in.
Accounts are linked to each other. If multiple accounts each have their own character, you can select a primary character. After that, logging in with any linked account lets you use your primary character. Other characters will not disappear, and you can switch your primary character.
How to Unlink Accounts
Go to Settings → Other → Account Linking, where you'll see all linked accounts and their characters. Select the account to unlink and click Unlink. Note: To prevent security and trading issues, unlinked accounts will have a cooldown period before they can be linked to other accounts again.

How to Switch Your Primary Character
Go to Settings → Other → Account Binding, where you'll see all linked accounts and their characters. Choose the character you want as your primary character. After switching, logging in with any linked account will use this new primary character. Note: To prevent frequent switching, there is a cooldown period for this feature. Please choose your primary character carefully.
How to Unlink Accounts
Go to Settings → Other → Account Binding, where you'll see all linked accounts and their characters. Select the account to unlink and click Unbind. Note: To prevent security and trading issues, unlinked accounts will have a cooldown period before they can be linked to other accounts again.
Additional Info
After cross-progression linking, your character's rank and leaderboard position will not change. However, because Marvel Rivals matches players by device, your battle data, rank, and leaderboard on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox are saved separately under your Career for each device. Even though you have just one character, your rank and leaderboard are independent on each platform.
FAQ

After unbinding an account or switching your primary character, there will be a cooldown period. During cooldown, you cannot operate on that account or character.

No. Platform-exclusive costumes can only be used on their designated platforms. If you log in from another platform while equipped, your character will display the default costume.
No. Due to technical limitations, character data from linking will not update on other web functions like Discord or Twitch drops. Please check after linking and manually re-bind if necessary.
There are two cooldown types: Platform Cooldown: After unbinding, the account and related platform enter a 180-day cooldown, during which you cannot re-bind the same platform. Character Cooldown: After selecting a primary character, other characters enter a 30-day cooldown and cannot be used as your primary character during this period.
