FINALLY YES
i've been waiting for this for YEARS
This is great news. I've enjoyed getting something for (nearly)nothing and now more people can too.
The Pope is ascendant in the Vatican at this news. MS Rewards in the Holy See here we come
Don't celebrate too quickly. It's also available here in the Netherlands, but it's so bland that I never look at it. All of the cool arcade style giveaways etc. are never available.
@His_Dudeness Is that the perks or the sweeps you’re talking about? Are the actual points earned of an equivalent value to say the UK or USA?
It is a shame the perk value varies so much between country to country.
It blows my mind though that one of Xbox’s biggest selling points for player engagement hasn’t been available for so many country’s first so long.
For those that are just getting this in their regions congrats and definitely take advantage of it. Get into a routine of doing the daily bing searches on top of the GPU quests. It's legitimately free money and with everything going on in the world getting free GPU time, DLC, games or accessories goes a long way. Enjoy!
we need South Africa
@His_Dudeness do you have access to the Game Pass quests and whatnot?
@Bleachedsmiles
There are 7 options for "Shopping":
Two sweepstakes:
@Carck We do, but there's little to actually do with it. I can remember just after the release of the XSX that there was this arcade machine that gave random prices (including an actual XSS or XSX). That wasn't available at all in the Netherlands.
@His_Dudeness tbh I’ve never heard of this arcade machine before…I guess the UK doesn’t have it either, unless I’m mistaken?
@Bleachedsmiles https://www.purexbox.com/news/2021/02/random_xbox_fans_are_winning_series_x_consoles_with_microsoft_rewards
@His_Dudeness wow never come across this myself before…it’s basically a loot box then baker into the console itself? I reckon it must have gotten pulled since?
I actually read the article…yeah this only lasted till the following month of march in 2021
His_Dudeness, agree it is not the same as we see with our UK and US friends, but still managed to get over 200k reward points most of them with just playing games and do some searches (and using rewards app of course, the weekly streak etc.) here in the Netherlands.
All those Xbox gamers in the Vatican are going to be really excited now.
No Indonesia, boo ☹️
@PhileasFragg if the pope leaves a service on a Tuesday early ,u know it's cause the new game pass quests are out
I have missed this somehow! That is great news for me
