It seems you’ll have to accomplish it via Xbox Gift Cards instead.
It appears we’re receiving a lot of Microsoft Rewards updates currently, and this is a particularly intriguing turn of events – numerous MS Rewards users are being informed that direct Xbox Game Pass redemptions are soon to conclude!
They’re observing this while accessing the standard Microsoft Rewards dashboard on a web browser, but only a handful are noticing it at present – sufficient to take it seriously, yet not widespread by any means.
Here’s a glance:
As pointed out, many Microsoft Rewards users who aren’t experiencing this right now, so there’s a possibility this is merely an error on Microsoft’s part, or it could be restricted to specific regions or even particular users. Who can say?!
Regardless of the situation, we felt it necessary to highlight this considering the date is scheduled for October 1st, after which you might discover that direct Xbox Game Pass redemptions are no longer accessible through the Microsoft Rewards program. Instead, you’ll need to exchange Xbox Gift Cards and then convert those into Game Pass membership duration.
If we learn anything further about this in the upcoming days, we will revise this article accordingly.
