This Path skin is a recolor of a pair of legendaries, but this looks much better than those. Worth the light hassle of linking twitch.

Got pure blue/white garbage on my 5 packs.

I feel like an idiot because I'm genuinely confused how I get from Twitch to linking it to my Origin account, and I don't want to click submit on anything yet before I know. Once I get the Twitch setup, will I later get an option to tell it what my Origin account is? How does it verify that piece?

so twitch prime and amazon prime are different?

I have a twitch login and amazon prime on 2 different emails. I are confused.

Or would I have twitch prime, if I made a new twitch account that was the same email as my amazon account?
No, tie your amazon prime account to your twitch account. Now you have Twitch Prime.

Yeah some time during the process of claiming this loot on twitch a popup will take you to a EA login screen.

trying to link my Origin account to twitch but it keeps asking me for a security code that EA is not sending me. Anyone got any ideas?

EDIT: Oh it's in Google Authentication... would have been nice for it to actually say to look there instead of a "send new code" link that didn't do anything.

The skin is fairly nice. Didn't get anything better than a rare from the Apex packs though unfortunately. Still quite a nice little bonus.

Can it be redeemed on multiple platforms linked to EA Origin? I play it on my xbox one x mainly for now but will likely switch to PC once I get a better one.

this the main problem is this didnt happen for me when I started up apex legends for the first time... I really don't remember it if you did. Im re-downloading the game right now and see if it does or not...
The PSN - EA account link happened the first time you played an EA game on PlayStation 3/Vita/4, it's not a per game basis.

By default it looks to match a PSN account with an EA account with the same email address, or it automatically generates an EA account with that same email if it didn't already exist at the time.

In short, your PSN account is linked to an EA account with the same email as your PSN had back whenever the first EA game you played was. If you didn't realize this then you probably have more than one independent EA account.

(Xbox and Switch EA account linking works the exact same way.)

How do I link my origin account on PS4 if I never had an email associated with my PSN on Origin?
See my post above, if you've played an EA game on PS4, you have an EA account linked already. Same email as your PSN email.

Reset the EA account password to access it on a PC.

Your PSN account is already associated with a different EA account.

Fuckkkkkkk

I didn't know I already had an Origin account that is 7 years old. So I linked my twitch account to a brand new account. Any way to revoke the Twitch link so I can get it on real account?

thats insanely ridiculous for them have me remember the first damn EA game I played on psn.... I have two accounts one is my main account they are my origin accounts... the fact the apex didnt make everyone login for the first time when starting the game for the first time up on console is the issue here... I also just tryed using my PSN email to login to ea and did the forgot my password thing and have yet to get a reply back probably because their isnt an account with that email...

Can this be redeemed on each platform (xbox, ps4, PC) you have linked to EA? Or is it only redeemable on one platform?

Thanks for letting me know! I have a Twitch (prime) account but never use/visit Twitch, so I would have missed out on this one. Thanks again.

edit: nvm, figured it out. Cancelling my Amazon Prime subscription also cancels my Twitch Prime subscription.

You can unlink Twitch in the Twitch Settings -> Connections and re-link it to the proper account.

Sorry to hear about that man. If the @live.com address doesn't exist anymore, what about re-creating it and then resetting the EA password? (FWIW old @live.com addresses were made to re-direct to @outlook.com)

dont even have him yet.

ok how the F does someone on PS4 get this loot... I linked my EA and Twtich accounts start the game and loot is now where.... There is no where to even login to an ea account in the game.. wtf is this.. :/


You have to make sure your Prime is connected to Twitch. Then once thats done connect Twitch to EA account (PSN email). Then navigate back to the Loot page and "claim" prize by linking

well thankfully it worked out after more headache lol to my surprise I got an email to change my password(some of the info I gave them matched I guess)
They changed my account with a working email I can access, but of course even after using the link they provided to me over 10 times it just wouldn't sent the email to change my password... so I had to go through CS chat again. After a 2 hour wait the CS person emailed me and it went right through... :/ there really must be something wrong on their end for it to not work when I tried.
Got my skin that I really like because purple is my fav color, didn't do this just for the skin though just wanted my account that my psn account is tied too.

Even cooler than that played my first game right after that, first one in like 3 days and got champion :)



gotta tattoo my info on my arm later this week.. :P

I got a bunch of junk, intro quips and a bunch of craften materials, nothing worth of note sadly.

Then I bought 10 bucks worth of boxes and got a Pathfinder legendary skin so I have to make a decision if I want to wear the Chrome legendary or the Prime Skin lol.

OK, so to claim on PS4, I:

1.) Make sure my Twitch.tv account is linked to EA account.
2.) Make sure that my EA account is linked to my PSN account.
3.) Claim the loot on Twitch Prime.
4.) Log in to Apex on my PS4.

Does that sound right?
Did all that, double-checked everything, and I still don't have the packs.

I'm angry.
