Cryogenicide_X Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 (edited) I was thinking of changing my PSN name but I'm worried that I'll lose DLC or games I've purchased in the past. Is it true that this can happen as seeing this is stated on PlayStation when trying to change your name? Has this happened to anyone.

AihaLoveleaf Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 I changed my PSN a few years ago and was recently able to redownload my entire download list for PS3 during the whole store shutdown scare. Didn't affect me personally, though it's possible maybe others had some side effects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's good news then if you didn't notice anything missing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimeLordCrow13y Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 (edited) I didn’t have anything on my download list I had paid for at the time I changed my PSN name (changed as soon as I got a PS4) but can confirm that the one game I claimed for free ages ago and several demos were still in my download list after I changed my PSN.
