How to change the email linked to your Xbox Live gamertag

Get rid of that embarrassing email you're using with your Xbox gamertag!

Whether you've just picked up a new email address or you want to move on from that embarrassing nickname you made a few years ago, Microsoft account aliases are the way to go. Allowing users to switch out the email addresses attached their Microsoft accounts, aliases can save your precious purchases and data, eliminating the need to create an entirely new account.

To get started with Microsoft account aliases, you'll need an Xbox Live gamertag and access to a web browser. Although the following steps are likely easier on a PC or mobile device, the browsers on the Xbox One and Xbox 360 should also suffice.

After being added, these aliases can be configured to your preferences, with the ability to set a primary alias and remove any unused ones. Here's how to add a new or existing email to your Microsoft account.
