What does linking my game to a Bandai Namco ID do?

If you would like to transfer your game data to another device, you need to backup your data.

Linking your game to your Bandai Namco ID allows you to save your data to your account. This way, if the app is somehow deleted, your game data will still be safe.

I forgot the password to my Bandai Namco ID.

To change your password or other information provided at registration, please go to the Basic Information section of the Bandai Namco ID portal, or click here.

I transferred my game data, and now the game has reset on my old device.

Once your game data has been transferred to a new device, the game on your old device will automatically reset.

If you wish to play the game on your old device again, you may do so by performing another data transfer back to your old device.

My game data isn't on my new device.

You can access your game data by either linking the game on your new device to the Bandai Namco ID where your game data is stored, or by opening the app on the old device and entering the Bandai Namco ID found in the Data Transfer / Backup section into the app on your new device.
