Step 1: Try Logging In

Before initiating recovery, try logging into your account to confirm whether it's an issue with your password, email, or possible unauthorized access.

  • Visit the Activision Login Page
  • Enter your email and password.
  • If your password is incorrect, proceed with a password reset.

1๏ธโƒฃ Go to the Activision Password Reset page.
2๏ธโƒฃ Enter your email address linked to your Activision account.
3๏ธโƒฃ Check your email for a password reset link.
4๏ธโƒฃ Click the link and create a new, strong password (avoid reusing old passwords).

If you donโ€™t receive the email, check your spam or junk folder and wait a few minutes before requesting another.


Step 3: Recover an Account Without Email Access

If youโ€™ve lost access to the email associated with your Activision account, you may need to update your email address through Activision Support.
1๏ธโƒฃ Try to recover your email account by using your email providerโ€™s recovery options (e.g., Gmail, Outlook).
2๏ธโƒฃ If you canโ€™t recover your email, submit a support request to Activision with the subject โ€œAccount Recovery โ€“ Email Change.โ€

  • Your previous email address
