Online ID Change on PSN [Report; April 10, 2019]

  • Official Announcement April 10, 2019: We’re excited to announce that the online ID change feature on PSN is officially launching to all PlayStation 4 owners later today. You’ll also be able to change your online ID via a web browser, and that feature will also be available starting today. Thanks to all of you who participated in the beta preview program back in October/November and who gave us your feedback!

  • We do want to take this opportunity to clarify one point – as a result of the preview program, we’ve found an instance where a game did not fully support the feature, even though it was originally published after April 1, 2018, contrary to what we mentioned in our original announcement. All PS4 games originally published on or after April 1, 2018 have been developed to support the online ID change feature. However, since they have not all been specifically tested with the feature, we cannot guarantee that they will support it. For more details and information, we encourage you to refer to the list of tested games before making a change to your online ID. Do keep in mind that the large majority of most actively played PS4 games support the feature.

Change Your Online ID

Change the online ID associated with your account on PlayStation Network
  • Change your current online ID to a new ID from your PlayStation®4 system or web browser.

  • Change your online ID as many times as you want. The change is free the first time. After that, the cost is $9.99 USD/CAD per change ($4.99 USD/CAD with PlayStation Plus subscription).
  • Display your old online ID next to your new one on your profile on PS4 system and on web for 30 days, visible only to your Friends.

  • A list of PS4 games tested for the online ID change feature and some of the most common issues identified from that testing can be found at www.playstation.com/onlineid/games. However, we do not guarantee that all issues were found. Games which have no known issues identified on the list may still experience issues if you change your online ID. In addition, games not on the list have not been tested and may experience issues if you change your online ID. For examples of issues you may experience, see below.

  • All PS4 games originally published on or after April 1, 2018 have been developed to support the online ID change feature but, they have not been specifically tested with the online ID change feature and we do not guarantee that they are fully compatible with the feature. As such, games published on or after April 1, 2018 are not included in the Games List, unless a game has been reported and an issue confirmed, in which case we will add the game to the Games List.

  • PS3 and PS Vita games and apps do not support the change online ID feature.

  • You can revert back to any of your previous IDs for free by contacting customer support. Reverting to a previous online ID should resolve most issues caused by the ID change. However, changing back to your previous online ID may not fix all issues (for example, you may not recover all, or any, loss of content, progress, and functionality.)

  • Child accounts cannot change their online ID.

On PS4 system
  • From the settings menu, navigate to the following: [Settings]> [Account Management]> [Account Information]> [Profile]> [online ID].
  • Pick a new online ID of your choice (1), or choose from one of the suggestions.
  • Choose between (a) only displaying your new online ID on your profile or (b) displaying your old online ID next to your new one for 30 days.
  • If you have changed your online ID before, you will be prompted to complete a purchase transaction to pay for the online ID change.
  • Once the process is complete, you will be signed out of your account and need to sign back in.

 Via Web Browser
  • Sign in to PlayStation Network Account Management on Web and navigate to the PSN Profile page in the menu.
  • Change online ID can be accessed from the account profile page. An edit button is added next to online ID.
  • Pick a new online ID of your choice1, or choose from one of the suggestions.
  • Choose between (a) displaying only your new online ID on your profile or (b) displaying your old online ID next to your new one for 30 days.
  • If you have changed your online ID before, you will be prompted to complete a purchase transaction to pay for the online ID change.

  • For more information about how to use the feature, risks, limitations, how to handle issues, please contact customer support.

If you change your online ID, you may experience one or more of the following known issues:
  • You may lose access to content (including paid-for content) that you've acquired for those games, including content like add-ons and virtual currency
  • You may lose your progress within those games, including game saved data, leaderboard data, and progress toward trophies
  • Parts of your games and applications may not function properly, both online and offline
  • Your previous online ID(s) may remain visible to you and other players in some places
  • You may have permanent game issues as a result of the online ID change that cannot be fixed with a revert back to your old online ID.

It is recommended that all prospective feature users review the list of games above before taking action to change their online ID. If you change your online ID and experience errors while playing a game, you can revert to any previous online ID to attempt to resolve the issue. While reverting to a previous online ID should resolve most issues, it may not fix all issues (for example, you may not recover all, or any, loss of content, progress, and functionality). If you want to change back, do so as soon as possible, because changing back to your previous online ID may affect content, game progress, and functionality associated with your new online ID.

(1) online ID must comply with the Commmunity Code of Conduct in the PlayStation Network Terms of Service and User Agreement.

Bloodborne in List of Games with Issues Identified [Report]
