How to Delete an Epic Games Account
If you no longer want to use your Epic Games account, you may choose to delete it permanently. Deleting an Epic Games account is a straightforward process, and this article will guide you through the process.
Before we proceed, it’s essential to understand the implications of deleting an Epic Games account. Once you delete your account, you lose access to all the games, DLCs, and in-game content you’ve acquired using that account. You also lose access to friends, achievements, and other services associated with the account.
With that in mind, let’s dive into the steps on how to delete your Epic Games account:
Step 1: Go to the Epic Games website
Open your preferred web browser and navigate to the Epic Games website. You can do this by typing “www.epicgames.com” into the address bar and hitting enter.
Step 2: Sign in to your account
In the top right corner of the Epic Games website, click on the “Sign In” button. Enter your email address and password to log in to your Epic Games account.
Step 3: Access the Account Settings
Once logged in, click on your profile name in the top right corner, and then click the “Account” option from the dropdown menu. Here you can access your account settings.
Step 4: Delete Your Account
In the account tab, scroll down to the bottom and click on the “Delete Account” button. You will be redirected to a page that provides information about account deletion. Read through the information, and when you’re ready to proceed, click on the “Delete Account” button.
Step 5: Confirm Deletion
After clicking the “Delete Account” button, you will be asked to confirm that you want to delete your account. Confirm by entering the email address associated with your Epic Games account and clicking the “Delete Account” button.
Step 6: Wait for Confirmation Email
Once you have confirmed the deletion, Epic Games will send a confirmation email to the email address you entered. You may need to check your spam folder in case the confirmation email ends up there.
And that’s it; your Epic Games account is now deleted! Remember that this process is irreversible, so make sure you’re ready to let go of your account permanently. If you change your mind, there’s no way to recover a deleted Epic Games account.
