Xbox gamer shares tip for easy free store credit

When the possibility of easy Xbox store credit and achievements go hand in hand, you can bet that it most certainly piques our interest and if it does for you too, then read on.

You may have heard of a program called Microsoft Rewards, a scheme that seemingly inspired Sony’s PlayStation Stars. Microsoft Rewards includes quests for Xbox Game Pass subscribers which can earn you points simply by playing games and earning in-game achievements. You can even earn points by using the Bing internet browser.

Those points can then be totalled up to spend on Xbox store credit, as well as credit for other online retailers, competition sweepstake entries, charitable donations and much more. It may take a while to accumulate enough points to spend on anything worthwhile depending on how committed you are but it’s a nice and easy way to earn some freebies.

With that in mind, Train Sim World 4 is a game included in Xbox Game Pass and with it comes some very easy achievements to acquire which in turn helps to complete Xbox Game Pass quests to earn Microsoft Rewards points. “If anyone needs an easy Xbox Game Pass title for achievements try Train Sim World 4,” said Redditor kevinchadwick55, sharing some insight in the thread.

In most cases, you can complete quests by simply earning a single achievement as well as multiple achievements by playing Xbox Game Pass titles. So the screenshot shared by kevinchadwick55 featuring several achievements should be more than enough to knock off a few quests.

However, Reddit user UpstairsNo9249 does warn fellow members on the thread that this train sim series is known for apparently having “unobtainable” achievements. “People should probably be aware that all Train Sim World games have unobtainables so they will never be able to complete it because Dovetail Games doesn't care. If they're cool with that, then it's fine,” they warned. So it’s perhaps worth keeping that in mind in case you consider going after 1000 gamerscore with Train Sim World 4.

Train Sim World 4 is out now on PC, PlayStation and Xbox.
