View Microsoft Rewards points balance right on the Home screen
Undoubtedly the most exciting new feature this update will bring allows users to see their Microsoft Rewards points right on the Xbox dashboard’s Home screen, instead of having to navigate to it. As per the release notes published on Xbox Wire,
Starting today, a random subset of users will see their Rewards points balance right from the Home screen! To find it, look no further than the top corner where you typically find your Xbox gamertag. Some users will see the balance as the information cycles, while others will see it alongside their gamerscore.
Bear in mind that this update is currently only available in preview for the Xbox Insiders Alpha Skip-Ahead ring. If you are interested in enrolling in the Xbox Insiders Program, you can do so here. You can also learn more about it over on the Xbox Insiders FAQ page.
