So, you find yourself in a bit of a pickle. You were all ready to dive into the world of crossplay on Destiny 2, but instead of linking your trusty Xbox account, you accidentally created a whole new account on PC. Don't worry, my friend, I'm here to guide you out of this digital conundrum.

First things first, let's address the elephant in the room. Did you link this newly created Steam account to your cross-save enabled Xbox account, or is it completely separate? If you've already linked the two accounts, then the solution becomes a bit simpler. But if they are separate, fear not, for we have a few options to explore.

One possible solution is to reach out to the helpful folks at Bungie Support. They have a team of experts who can work their magic and help you switch your accounts. Contact them and provide all the necessary details, such as your Xbox account information and the newly created Steam account. They should be able to guide you through the process of linking your Xbox account to your PC.

If you haven't already, make sure you have enabled Cross Save on your Xbox account. This nifty feature allows you to access your characters and progress across different platforms. Once you've done that, log in to your newly created Steam account and head over to Bungie's website. From there, navigate to the Cross Save section and follow the instructions to link your Xbox account. This should sync your progress and enable crossplay on your PC.

Now, if all else fails and you're unable to switch to your Xbox account on PC, you might have to consider starting from scratch. It's not the ideal solution, but sometimes it's the only way to go. Create a new Steam account and link it directly to your Xbox account. This will ensure that your progress and characters are carried over. However, keep in mind that any progress made on your mistakenly created Steam account will be lost. So, weigh your options carefully before going down this path.

Remember, these solutions are not set in stone, and the best course of action may vary depending on your specific situation. Don't hesitate to reach out to Bungie Support for personalized assistance. Good luck, Guardian, and may the crossplay gods smile upon you!
