Xbox gamers farming free store credit, and we're impressed

Who said playing video games couldn’t be rewarding? That is definitely not the case for Xbox users who can earn Microsoft Reward points just by playing some of their favourite titles from the Xbox Game Pass catalogue.

We all know that the only thing better than video games is being able to access them for free and fortunately for Xbox Game Pass members, this is a possibility courtesy of the Microsoft Rewards Programme. By completing ‘quests’ that are added to your Xbox console each day (found in the Game Pass section), you will be able to earn points.

Earned points can be spent on Xbox gift cards, in-game content, games, devices, films, app accessories and more so if you save enough up, you will be able to get your hands on some pretty cool stuff.

Although you can complete the Quests just by being an Xbox Game Pass member and playing the selected games whenever the mood takes you, you can also cheat the system by playing certain titles that will see you complete Quests faster. That is the case for one user on r/MicrosoftRewards who recently had a recommendation to make.

“New easy game for daily Achievement added... Bluey: The Videogame”, they wrote. “My kids love Bluey, so this is cool to see on Game Pass… it reminds me of Peppa Pig, Frog Detective, Planet of Lana, and so forth, where you can easily play a relatively short amount of the game each day and quickly earn an Achievement. Anyway, just thought I would share for anyone interested in hitting those monthly quest milestones quicker! Enjoy!”

If Bluey: The Videogame isn’t for you but you would like to take advantage of this method, other users came forward with some other suggestions such as: Age of Empires II, Ark, Celeste, Coffee Talk, Cooking Simulator, Vampire Survivors, Unpacking and more. All of these titles offer Quests that are quicker and easier to achieve so make sure you check them out if you want some free points!
