@BlueJays_MLBTS said in Buying The Show on Switch, want to have progress from PlayStation:
@Blind_Bleeder_PSN
yup exactly, i have the now or later packs on the PS4 and I wanted them to transfer over but wasn't sure if I can get this to transfer while keeping the extras from the DD. I tried sending a ticket in and haven't gotten a great response, I'll try again, thanks. If i try to link my account with the PS as the primary and I don't get the extras and then unlink the account, you think I'll still get the extras?
Yes, you will. Progress and earned assets aren't deleted, they stay with the version you purchased. When you link accounts, the primary account shares with the sub account(s).
For example, I have my PS, XBox, and Nintendo accounts linked. My PS account is my primary account. Whatever version I play on my PS, is what I see on my other two consoles (no matter what version I bought for them).
For 25, I bought the DD version for my XBox. I don't plan on getting it for my other two consoles, but if I do, I'll have to unlink my accounts and relink them making my XBox as primary, or the servers will hide my XBox version (and progression) and I'll only see my PS version (and progression).
Keep in mind that this doesn't work for purchased stubs. Purchased stubs can only be used on the account they are purchased from. If I bought stubs from Microsoft, they can only be used on the Xbox version and cannot be shared.
Given that, I think (and my memory may be hazy on this because it's been a few years) I have purchased stubs from Microsoft while my PS account was primary. I didn't see them when playing on my PS, but I did see them playing on my XBox. If I remember correctly (IF), from my XBox, I bought cards, and I did see those cards on my PS.
I hope this helps, and I hope they get back to you quickly.
I really don't see a resolution for you without spending a lot of money (buying a PS5, a version for the PS5, probably the DD, seeing if you get Nintendo to take back the DD version or swapping it for the standard version and giving you a refund, then linking the accounts making your PS account primary...doing all of this nonsense would solve your problem and you'd be able to play the game on your switch with cross progression, and you'd get the now and later packs you've earned on your PS4).
