RAID: Shadow Legends is one of the most popular turn-based RPGs on mobile and PC platforms today. With countless hours spent upgrading champions, grinding dungeons, and developing your roster, your game progress is immensely valuable. So, what happens when you get a new device or want to switch platforms? Fortunately, RAID makes it relatively easy to transfer your account — as long as you’ve linked it correctly.
In this guide, we will walk you through the steps to transfer your RAID: Shadow Legends account safely and effectively. Whether you’re moving from an Android to iOS device, PC to mobile, or vice versa, these steps ensure your epic progress is not lost.
Why Linking Your Account Matters
Before diving into the step-by-step process, it’s important to understand the necessity of account linking. RAID: Shadow Legends allows you to associate your game account with several platforms:
- Plarium ID – The most recommended and universal option.
- Facebook – For social syncing across devices.
- Apple ID or Google Play – Useful for platform-specific syncing.
Linking your account acts as a backup and makes the transfer process seamless. Not linking your account can result in permanent loss of data when switching devices.
How to Link Your Account
Here’s how you can link your current game to a Plarium ID:
- Open RAID: Shadow Legends on your current device.
- Tap the gear icon to access Settings.
- Choose Account.
- Click on Link next to the Plarium logo.
- Create a new Plarium ID or log in if you already have one.
Once linked, your account will be accessible on any device where you log in with that Plarium ID.
Transferring Your Account to Another Device
If you’ve already linked your account to a Plarium ID or another platform, transferring becomes straightforward. Here’s how:
From Mobile to Mobile
- Install RAID: Shadow Legends on the new device.
- Launch the game and at the welcome screen, choose Log In.
- Select the platform you used to link your account (Plarium ID, Facebook, etc.).
- Enter your credentials and log in.
Your progress will load automatically, picking up right where you left off.
From Mobile to PC (Plarium Play)
- Download and install the Plarium Play launcher on your PC.
- Open the launcher and log in with your Plarium ID.
- Download RAID: Shadow Legends and start the game.
- Your progress will instantly sync via the account.
If you’re switching from Facebook-linked games instead, remember to log into the Plarium Play client using the same Facebook credentials.
Common Pitfalls and How to Avoid Them
While the process is generally smooth, here are a few issues to watch out for:
- Unsaved Progress: Never delete or reset the app before confirming that your account is linked.
- Wrong Login Sequence: Always ensure you’re logging into the correct linked platform — many players accidentally create new accounts.
- Platform Restrictions: Some options like Apple ID are restricted to iOS only and can’t be used across Android or PC.
To avoid complications, it’s recommended to link your account to a Plarium ID regardless of your primary platform. It offers the most flexibility.
What to Do If Something Goes Wrong?
If you accidentally lose your account progress or log into the wrong profile, don’t panic. Plarium offers effective customer support:
- Go to Plarium Support.
- Select RAID: Shadow Legends.
- Explain your issue with as much detail as possible: username, account level, linked platforms, etc.
The support team typically responds within a few business days and can help recover your lost progress in most cases.
Final Thoughts
Transferring your RAID: Shadow Legends account is an essential skill for every serious player. With proper linking to a Plarium ID, switching between devices becomes a stress-free process. As mobile devices continue to evolve, the ability to pick up right where you left off — regardless of platform — ensures that your hard-earned champions remain by your side.
Always remember: backup your account, link to Plarium ID, and enjoy the game wherever you go.
