This guide is relatively straightforward and simple. It takes a minute or two and skips all the download steps (aside from the filecheck, just to be safe). After following these steps (and linking PSO2 to your epic games account above), you will be ready to play PSO2 NA Epic Games Store version! \o/

Please note that, after doing this, you will be able to swap between the Microsoft Store,Steam, and Epic versions of PSO2NA at any time, with them all working as expected. (Assuming you have them installed and set up)

1. Open the PSO2 Tweaker (6.0.3.1+) and change your version at the top to "Global (Epic Games Store)".
2. On the popup, select "Global", then

   "Epic Games Store" (NOT WINDOWS OR STEAM)

   , then "Yes". Select the same "pso2_bin" folder you were using in your Microsoft Store/Steam install. (where PSO2NA is currently installed)
3. Wait for the console windows to finish, then hit OK to restart the Tweaker.
4. Hit yes to do a filecheck, and wait for it to finish.
5. Once the filecheck has completed, you can now launch any version of the game at any time by switching at the top.

First time setup for Epic Games version

In order to circumvent the Epic Games Launcher entirely, the Tweaker will use the open-source Legendary client. On first launch, the Tweaker will download it and walk you through the very short setup procedure. (This will only happen once)

Linking existing data to Epic Games account

Now that you can use the Epic Games version, switch the version back to the first version of PSO2NA you played. Launch the game through there like before to get your code (Select a ship -> Support Menu -> Issue Account Link Code). Then close the game, switch to the Epic Games version. Launch the game, put in the code, and enjoy the game! \o/

Using a different Epic Games account

In order to use a different Epic Games account, you will need to delete your existing data from Legendary. Go to where your Tweaker is, and open a command prompt window. You can do this by going to the folder where the Tweaker is, then typing "cmd" at the top bar and hitting enter, like so:





Once you have this prompt open, type legendary.exe auth --delete and hit enter. Now when you try to launch through the Tweaker, it will have you re-do the account linking.

The Tweaker -will- try to import existing Epic Games Launcher account info though, so make sure you sign into the Epic Games Launcher with the new account before you launch via Tweaker if you have Epic Games Launcher installed. If you don't, then don't worry about it.
