Xbox Game Pass Quests: How To Earn Free Rewards on PC & Console

Many gamers enjoy the subscription model offered through Xbox Game Pass, which lets you try out a ton of games for one monthly cost. But free games aren’t the only perk of Game Pass – they also revamped their Xbox Game Pass quests, which lets players earn rewards for playing games.

What Are Xbox Game Pass Quests?

Game Pass Quests are in-game tasks players can check off by logging in and playing their favorite video games. These quests, including newly reintroduced weekly streaks, let players earn Xbox Game Pass rewards points.

There are four main types of Quests in Xbox Game Pass:

These quests are available to complete on an ongoing basis and roll over by the day or month, depending on the Quest. Quests are available for Game Pass Ultimate subscribers, as well as PC Game Pass members.

In addition to Game Pass quests, players can earn reward points by completing other daily Play tasks in the Xbox Game Pass rewards hub. Rewards are available for playing on PC, on console, and opening the mobile app, among others.

How To View Xbox Game Pass Quests & Progress

If you’re new to Xbox Game Pass quests and rewards, it’s not immediately obvious where to find them. There’s no shiny Quests button to click from the homepage, but the information can be easily found by viewing your Account Profile in the Xbox Game Pass app.

There, you will see an Achievements section and a Rewards section. Toggle over to Rewards to view current Game Pass Quests, daily tasks, and your Rewards Points total.

As you scroll down, you will see the list of Play and earn points activities first. Unlike Quests, these vary by day but are another great way to earn Rewards by doing things like playing PC games, playing on console, etc.

Scrolling past the Play and Earn Points section will take you to the list of Game Pass Quests, along with your progress towards each. You can view your percentage and current Weekly Streaks from this page to see how close you are to earning Reward Points or your next multiplier.

What Can You Get with Xbox Game Pass Rewards Points?

Earning points is great and all, but what can you actually get with Xbox Game Pass Reward Points? At the top of the Rewards section, you can click on “Get rewarded” to head to the Xbox Game Pass points shop.

This takes you to the list of currently available Game Pass Rewards. The two main options are Shop and Donate. In the Shop section, you can choose from various options such as paying for a month of your Game Pass subscription or gift cards for various in-game currencies. Options for game gift cards currently include League of Legends, Roblox, and Minecraft, among others. You can also get an Xbox Gift Card to use however you like.

If you’re all set on in-game currency, you can also donate to charitable organizations, including The Trevor Project, World Wildlife Fund, and more. The donation amount isn’t super high, with each 1000 points being worth a $1 donation to your charity of choice, but if you’re playing often enough, it can add up.

If you’re working towards a specific reward, you can pin it to your profile to easily track your Xbox Game Pass Quest progress towards the required amount of points.
