 | | Subject: New Xbox Live Rewards Program Coming in September Fri Jul 12, 2013 10:03 am | |
| Microsoft is set to reveal a new generation of Xbox Live Rewards.
That’s according to the website Stevivor, which is carrying an email from Microsoft explaining that the current system - which rewards registered users with free Microsoft Points - will cease on August 1st, to be replaced by a new system on September 1st.
“With all these changes, it’s become necessary for us to evolve the way we reward you,” reads the email. “Starting August 1, 2013, you will not be able to earn Microsoft Points through Xbox Live Rewards any longer.
“Not to worry, though! Since this currency change is impacting the structure of the program, we’re taking the opportunity to make Xbox Live Rewards even better. You’ll continue to get rewarded for doing the things you love on Xbox Live – just not with Microsoft Points.
“So come back to rewards.xbox.com on September 1, 2013 for the full scoop. You can also follow us at @XboxLiveRewards on Twitter for the latest updates,”
We wonder how registered users will be rewarded now? Cash seems unlikely. Free games, perhaps? We’ll find out in September.
Meanwhile, the Xbox Live content price hike suffered by beta testers has been written off by Microsoft as a mistake. You can read more about that through here.
Microsoft announced during E3 that Microsoft Points are to be ditched in favour of local currency. | |
