Xbox makes Rewards punch card easier following achievement troubles

Xbox has lowered the number of achievements needed to complete the Xbox Game Pass Competitive punch card in the Microsoft Rewards app following achievement tracking issues.

Earlier this month, Xbox urged Microsoft Rewards users to file a support ticket for May's Xbox Game Pass Competitive punch card (AKA the V for Victory with Game Pass punch card) if they had completed the task but didn't receive the Rewards points as the task was not tracking achievements correctly. Now, Xbox has changed the punch card's requirements, lowering the number of achievements needed to complete it.

If you now go to the punch card in the Microsoft Rewards app, you should see that the number of achievements required to complete the task has been lowered from three down to one.

Of course, this should make it much easier to unlock, but some users are reporting that even after unlocking one achievement, the punch card still won't complete — it's worth bearing in mind here that sometimes it does take a while for the punch card to update.

The punch card expires at the end of the month, so you'll want to jump on this one now. If you've already completed its requirements and still don't have the points, make sure you file a support ticket.

In other Microsoft Rewards news, your Microsoft Rewards balance will soon be displayed alongside your Gamerscore. on the Xbox Home UI.

Thanks to MetaGame for the heads-up!
