what is my epic id

Your Epic ID is a unique identifier for your Epic Games account (different from your display name) that support and some games use to identify you.

Quick answer

You can’t see your Epic ID directly through me, but you can find it yourself in a few ways depending on where you’re logged in.

How to find your Epic ID (Epic Games account)

On the Epic Games website

  1. Go to the Epic Games site and sign in to your account.
  1. Hover over your account name in the top‑right corner and click Account.
  1. In the Account information section, you’ll see your Epic Account ID listed there.

In Fortnite

  1. Open Fortnite and go to the lobby.
  1. Click your profile icon in the top‑right, then the gear icon to open Settings.
  1. Go to the Account and Privacy tab.
  1. Hover over EPIC ACCOUNT ID ; your ID appears on the right.

On your computer via launcher files (advanced)

  • On Windows, Epic stores data files in the EpicGamesLauncher folder; the .dat file names contain the Epic Account ID for accounts that have logged in.
  • On Mac, similar .dat files in the EpicGamesLauncher data folder also use the Epic Account ID as the file name.

Extra note: “Epic ID” vs other IDs

  • Epic Games account ID (Epic ID) : Long unique ID used by Epic’s systems and support.
  • Display name : What other players usually see in games like Fortnite; this is not the same as your Epic ID.

If you tell me which device or game you’re using (for example: Fortnite on PS5, PC launcher, mobile, etc.), I can walk you through the exact on‑screen steps.
