Then, select “Profile & System” and select the Gamertag you currently have. Then go to My Profile > Customize Profile and select your Gamertag.
In the Choose Your New Gamertag – enter your desired game tag and check for its availability. If it is not available, Xbox will try to suggest you similar Gamertags. They usually have numbers in them. Once you’ve changed your tag, restart the game and you should be good to go.

On the PC, your nickname is dictated by your Microsoft/Xbox Live account as well, but changing it is a bit different. To change your name on this platform, you are going to need the Windows Xbox app. You can download this from the Microsoft Store for free on Windows 10 and 11.
Once you’ve logged in to your Microsoft Account on the Xbox app, go to the upper right corner, to your profile picture, and click on settings. In the settings, on the Account tab, press Change Gamertag. This will open up a web browser that will take you to a page that lets you check for your desired Gamertag and change your current one.
