COSM-GAME How to Link Blue Archive Steam and Mobile Progress with Default Account Settings
Blue Archive can use the same selected Game Profile across Steam and mobile after the accounts are linked to the same Nexon Account. If both your Steam and Nexon accounts already contain game data, use Default Account Settings to choose which profile you want to play across the linked platforms.

Link a mobile guest account to Nexon before using Steam
Blue Archive can use the same selected Game Profile across Steam and mobile, but the platforms first need to be connected through a Nexon Account.
If your mobile progress is still stored on a guest account, open Menu Tab > Account > Link Account on mobile and connect it to a Nexon Account before continuing.
Note: A guest account is not a protected linked account. Nexon warns that guest data can be lost after changing devices or uninstalling the game, so link the mobile Game Profile before moving to Steam.
Use Link My Account when you first launch Blue Archive on Steam
Link My Account.If that Steam account and Nexon Account were already linked through another supported Nexon service, Blue Archive may detect the connection automatically when you start the Steam client.
You can still link after choosing Play as Guest on Steam
Selecting Play as Guest creates a separate Steam Guest Game Profile, but you can link it later.
From the Steam version, use either Game Login Screen > Menu > Link Account or Menu > Account > Link Account. Continue to the Nexon login page and sign in to the Nexon Account you want connected.
If game data already exists on both the Steam account and Nexon Account, linking does not require you to erase one of those profiles. The next step is choosing which one should become your Default Account.
Select the progress you want on Default Account Settings
Set beside the Game Profile you want to use as the Default Account.The selected Game Profile becomes the one you play when logging into platforms linked to that Nexon Account.
The other Game Profile is not deleted
If separate game progress exists on both Steam and Nexon, the Default Account system selects which Game Profile is active across the linked platforms. Nexon states that a profile you do not select is not reset.
You can return to the Default Account Settings page later and use Set again to change which linked Game Profile is the default.
Changing the selected Game Profile can log you out of active sessions, so sign back in after making the switch.
Default Account Settings are only available after the profiles are linked
- The feature is used when linked accounts contain game data that can be selected as the Default Account.
- A mobile guest account must first be linked to a Nexon Account.
- Accounts currently going through Blue Archive or Nexon account closure cannot use Default Account Settings.
- Resetting the account after choosing a Default Account also removes that Default Account setting.
If Steam opens the wrong Blue Archive progress
First open the official Default Account Settings page and check which Steam or Nexon Game Profile is currently selected.
If Steam itself is linked to the wrong Nexon Account, use Game Login Screen > Menu > Delink Account or Menu > Account > Delink Account in the Steam client. You can also sign in to Nexon.com and use Account Settings > Linked Account > External Connections > Link/Delink Account.
After delinking, connect Steam to the correct Nexon Account and set the intended Game Profile as the Default Account again.
Note: Delinking stops cross-platform access between the Steam and Nexon accounts until they are connected again. Nexon says the Steam Library, Steam purchase history, and Blue Archive game progress themselves are not reset by the delink.
