If you’re encountering the error message “Binding failed. [1002, format is incorrect]” while trying to log in or link your Infinity Nikki account, you’ve come to the right place. Here’s everything you need to know about this pesky issue including what’s causing it and how to get rid of the binding failed error in Infinity Nikki.
What’s Causing the Infinity Nikki Binding Failed Issue?
The platform is trying to connect to your existing PSN account but fails due to errors in how the account is linked. Your email or login credentials might not match what the system expects. There could be an issue with how your PSN account is tied to the service.
Sometimes, the suggested options, like “Create a New Account,” might seem counterproductive but could actually work to resolve the error.
How To Fix Binding Failed Error in Infinity Nikki
Here are a few fixes that could help you get past this error:
Fix 1: Choose “Create a New Account” (Even for Existing Accounts)
- Select the option to “Create a New Account” on your PS5 even if you already have one.
- The system may automatically detect your existing PSN-linked account and log you in.
Though it seems strange, this option triggers the system to properly link your account.
Fix 2: Link Your Account Through the Website
- Visit the account management website for the game or service (e.g., the INFOLD portal).
- Log in with the same email you use for your PSN account and bind it there.
- Try logging in on your PS5 again using the same credentials.
Fix 3: Start a New Game on Your PS5
- Begin a new game on your PS5 instead of attempting to log in right away.
- The game might automatically detect your PSN account and log you in without any extra steps.
Starting fresh can refresh the account detection process and resolve the issue.
