News PS4 6.10 BETA User is now live! Screenshot in UK/JP - (PSN Change Username)

Hey everyone, this just in

Overview

As part of the System Software 6.10 preview, we are rolling out the upcoming Change Online ID system feature. As a preview user you will be able to change your Online ID using the new system tools.

To use this feature please ensure you have a clear understanding of the implications of changing your Online ID and the software’s restrictions – described in the following sections – before software installation. If you are unsure, do not download and install the Preview Programme software.


Important Information Before Changing your Online ID:

Not all games and applications for PS4™, PS3™, PS Vita, and other PlayStation® systems support the Online ID change feature. If you change your Online ID:
• You may lose access to content (including paid-for content) that you have acquired for your games, including content like add-ons and virtual currency.
• You may lose your progress within games, including game saved data, leaderboard data and progress toward trophies.
• Parts of your games and applications might not function properly, both online and offline.
• Your previous Online ID(s) may remain visible to you and other players in some places.


Change Online ID Restrictions During Preview:

The changes during the preview will adhere to the following structure:
• First change is free for all users.
• Second change will be charged at €9.99 / £7.99 (PlayStation®Plus subscribers receive a 50% discount).
• If your previous Online ID violates any of the current Terms of Service, you will not be able to revert back to your previous Online ID.
• You can revert to your previous Online ID once per account during the preview period.
• Sub-Accounts cannot utilise the Change Online ID feature.
• After you change your Online ID, it may take a few hours for some services and applications to reflect the new ID.

If for any reason you have issues after changing your Online ID you can revert back to your previous ID at no charge. However:
• you may only do this once during the preview period;
• changing back to your previous Online ID may not fix all issues (you may not recover all or any lost content, progress and functionality; and
• 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.

Good mind your own choice well.

 

No maybe Yes

Why? If Sony can't fix. It is a bigger problem. Microsoft will win than sony... I've used XB360 a long time ago, I had changed old username to new username then never got lost anything content. Interesting so. But we'll see happens in early 2019 if they fixed or not.

So, try revert to your old username bring back content?

 

what do you mean convert back to old username

Revert = come back to your old username.

Remember to this new word.

 

I heard you but I dont update so i,m not worry about it

 

At the point you're losing everything for changing your username you might as well make a new PSN account

Note: if you lose everything from changing your name does that mean sony tracks everyone's PSN accounts by their name and not some sort of online ID that doesn't change?
