PSA: You can earn up to 10,000 Microsoft Rewards points for your Xbox Gamerscore this month

If you’re hoping to earn some easy Microsoft Rewards points this month, team Xbox has you covered. Back for the month of May is the Gamerscore challenge, where you can earn up to 10,000 Microsoft Rewards points for your new achievements.

Lasting from May 11 until May 31, this challenge nets you an equal number of Microsoft Rewards points for any new Gamerscore earned during the period. As an example, an achievement worth 10 Gamerscore gets you 10 points and one worth 40 gets you 40 points.

Of course, you’ll need to activate this first via the Microsoft Rewards app on Xbox consoles. Click to activate the punch card there, and then start earning. Note that only new Gamerscore count towards this, so you’ll likely have to check out some new games, or finish existing games in your library first to score the most points.

We suggest subscribing to Xbox Game Pass to get the most points, as games like Donut County, Hotshot Racing, or the Little Acre are quick to play through and can net you up to 3,000 Gamerscore in just a few hours.
